Summary
The question of how and by whom public duties are financed is crucial for the role of the state in society. In view of the far-reaching changes in the state, the question is what kind of state financing is just and constitutional as well as economically efficient. A possible answer to this question would be to link the financial responsibility for certain revenue and certain expenses more closely in accordance with the principle of equivalence. In this volume, Arndt Schmehl takes a look at this proposal from an interdisciplinary and a jurisprudential standpoint.
