We are pleased to announce that Sol Plaatje University’s Professor of Economics, Emmanuel Ramos Mabugu, has published a book chapter on South Africa in The Forum of Federations Handbook of Fiscal Federalism which is available on Springer Link.

The book offers in-depth insights into twelve key federal countries and their fiscal arrangements, provides comparative cross-cutting analysis on fiscal federalism management in multi-level systems, and compiles the latest research from the world’s preeminent network for expertise on federal and decentralized governance.

The Forum of Federations Handbook of Fiscal Federalism is an open access handbook that compares fiscal federalism arrangements in federal/decentralized countries. Each chapter examines an individual country, laying out its constitutional design as it relates to fiscal powers and the division of those powers between levels of government.
