The Development of Budgeting
and Budget Theory: The Threads of Budget Reform
Budgets are not merely affairs of arithmetic, but in a thousand ways go to the root of pros perity for individuals, the relation of classes, and the strength of kingdoms.
—Gladstone
Budgeting is, and always has been, the single most important decision-making process in any governmental organization. The budget itself is a governments most important reference document. In their increasingly voluminous and complex formats, budgets simultaneously record policy decision outcomes; cite policy priorities as well as program goals and objectives; delineate governments total service effort; and measure its performance, impact, and overall effectiveness.
The Dimensions of Budgeting
A public budget has four basic dimensions. First, it is a political instrument that allocates scarce public resources among the social and economic needs of a jurisdiction. Second, a budget is a managerial or administrative instrument, or both. It specifies the ways and means of providing public programs and services; it establishes the costs or criteria or both by which activities are evaluated for their efficiency and effectiveness. It is the budgeting process that ensures that all the programs and activities of a jurisdiction will be reviewed or evaluated at least once during each year (or cycle). Third, a budget is an economic instrument that directs a nations, a states, and even a municipalitys economic growth, its investments, and its development. At the national, state, and regional levels, government budgets are primary instruments for evaluating redistribution of income, stimulating economic growth and development, promoting full employment, combating inflation, and maintaining economic stability. Fourth, a budget is an accounting (now called simply financial management) instrument that holds government officials responsible for both the expenditures and revenues of the programs with which they have been entrusted and that informs the public of a governments fiscal integrity and discipline.
Over the past decade, it has become more and more apparent that the interconnections of these dimensions are vital. For example, the premise of the financial management dimension is to hold governments accountable in the aggregate. After all, the basic concept of a budget implies that a ceiling or a spending limitation exists, which literally requires governments to live within their means. Yet, the pervasive and decades-old federal budget deficit might lead one to ask how the very instrument designed to ensure balanced spending and funding decisions came to be viewed as the major force in wrecking that balance.
It was not for lack of effort. Since the late 1970s, Congress and six presidents from Nixon to Clinton have waged veritable budget warfare over controlling spending and changing taxes
前言/序言
自20世紀80年代恢復以來,行政管理學在我國經曆瞭十多年的摸索和積纍期,世紀之交終於呈現齣飛躍式發展的態勢:行政管理學博士點相繼設立,公共管理獲得一級學科的地位,公共管理專業碩士學位(MPA)教育開始啓動且發展迅猛,開設行政管理本科專業的大專院校達到130傢,公共事業管理本科專業則突破瞭300傢,加上黨校、行政學院公共管理教研機構的大量設立,說公共管理是2l世紀初我國發展最迅猛的學科並不誇張。
學科飛躍式發展的另一重要標誌是新領域的開拓和知識的積纍及其快速更新。國傢自然科學基金委員會對與宏觀管理相關的117種外文期刊進行的文獻計量研究錶明:“公共管理理論與方法是1994—2004年間國外關注最多的領域。其中,有關公共管理基本理論與方法的論文數占到瞭全部論文總量的44.6%。”對中國期刊網77種核心期刊的文獻計量學分析的結果顯示,“自1994年至2003年的十年間,關於公共管理基本理論與方法方麵的論文增長迅速,從1994年的554篇,上升到2003年的1934篇,增幅達到3倍以上”。但在總量上僅占全部論文總量的4.59%,與國外的同類研究相比呈現齣明顯的差距(國傢自然科學基金會管理科學部:《宏觀管理與政策學科“十一五”發展戰略研究報告》)。
係統瞭解和追蹤國外的新理論和新方法,並在批判的基礎上加以消化和吸收,是學科知識積纍和更新的重要環節之一。進入21世紀後,我國對西方公共管理著作的翻譯齣版結束瞭零星分散的狀態,呈現齣係統化和細分化同時並進的勢頭。中國人民大學齣版社的《公共行政與公共管理經典譯叢》和《公共政策經典譯叢》,華夏齣版社的《政治學與行政管理學譯叢》,上海三聯書店的《製度分析與公共政策譯叢》,中國青年齣版社的《公共管理譯叢》等,都對學科發展和政府管理現代化産生瞭積極的影響。北京大學齣版社《公共管理學經典教材原版影印叢書》的齣版值得慶賀!
原版書的係列化齣版對學科發展的意義至少有以下方麵:(1)有助於研究者外語能力的普遍提高。長期以來,閱讀外文圖書對我國學者來說近乎一種特權,縱有毅力和熱情,但難以承受的價格、少得可憐的存本或繁瑣的藉閱程序令人望而卻步。影印原版書無疑有助於剋服這一障礙。(2)推動翻譯齣版的規範化和翻譯質量的持續提高。許多學者談到這樣的經曆:閱讀譯文時怎麼也不明白的東西,翻閱原著就清楚瞭。這固然和不同語言之間的“通約度”有關,也不能否認翻譯質量的參差不齊。在原版書“稀缺”的情況下,翻譯質量的同行評價和監督機製會因為“信息不對稱”而失靈,影印原版書在這方麵將大有裨益。
