This book examines the long-term evolution of political regimes and public finances in Europe. Using a novel combination of descriptive, case study, and statistical methods, the book performs a systematic investigation of a new panel database that spans eleven countries and four centuries. The book's findings are significant for our understanding of economic history, and have important consequences for current policy debates.
