Political Cycles and the Macroeconomy
"This book is an important achievement in Political Economy, by two of the most creative researchers in the field. The ideas here, developed over many years by Alesina and Roubini, have already stimulated considerable new research and important empirical findings. This book deserves a wide readership."--Jeffrey D. Sachs, Director, Harvard Institute for International Development; Galen L. Stone Professor of International Trade, Department of Economics, Harvard University
