Does foreign aid distort incentives and hurt growth? Theory and evidence from 75 aid-recipient countries (2008, background): “…and Tabellini (2003) find that tax revenue is more sensitive than government expenditure to the state of the economy implying a smaller reaction when both measures are scaled to GDP. Tanzi and Schuknecht (2000) use government expenditure as a percentage of GDP, which includes interest payments.”
Public sector efficiency: leveling the playing field between OECD countries (2008, unknown): “For example, it has been pointed out (see e.g. Tanzi and Schuknecht, 2000) that the main difference between big-government and small-government OECD countries lies in the spending for social security and welfare.”
The Good Governance Agenda: Beyond Indicators without Theory (2008, methodology): “46 All data referenced from Tanzi & Schuknecht (2000) or OECD (2007) or World Development Indicators (accessed December 2007).”
How Useful are Benefit Incidence Analyses of Public Education and Health Spending? (2003, background): “…on education can occur on more than three levels (e.g., preschool, vocational training, junior secondary, senior secondary), but the majority of studies focus on the three traditional levels. to define a “middle class” (Tanzi, 1974; Alesina, 1998; Tanzi and Schuknecht, 2000; and Easterly, 2001).”
Tax structure, size of government, and the extension of the voting franchise in Western Europe, 1860–1938 (2009, background): “The growth in the size of government that has characterized all industrialized countries in Europe, the USA and elsewhere over the past 150 years is a well-known fact documented by, e.g., Tanzi and Schuknecht (2000) and Lindert (2004a).”
Public sector efficiency: evidence for new EU member states and emerging markets (2010, background): “A first macro-measurement attempt was made by Tanzi and Schuknecht (1997, 2000) in trying to assess the benefits from total public spending in 18 industrialized countries.”
Fiscal Transparency, Gubernatorial Approval, and the Scale of Government: Evidence from the States (2002, background): “…in government operations. . . as an important precondition for macroeconomic fiscal sustainability, good governance, and overall fiscal rectitude” (Kopits and Craig 1998, 1; see also Alesina and Perotti 1996, 1999; Poterba and von Hagen 1999; Tanzi and Schuknecht 2000; and World Bank 2000).”
Does public sector efficiency matter? Revisiting the relation between fiscal size and economic growth in a world sample (2008, unknown): “This finding is similar to the arguments made in e.g. Gwartney et al. (1998) and Tanzi and Schuknecht (2000) although these papers do not take account of efficiency explicitly.”
