Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue seeks to tackle the dynamic challenges and emerging opportunities in public finance amidst rapidly evolving economic, social, and technological landscapes. It aims to uncover innovative strategies in fiscal policy, public debt management, taxation, and government spending. Central themes include the transformative role of digital technology in public financial management, the integration of environmental and social governance (ESG) objectives, and the pursuit of sustainable fiscal practices to address critical issues like inequality and climate change. Contributions are also invited to explore the effects of global crises—such as the COVID-19 pandemic—on public budgets, fiscal deficits, and pathways to economic recovery. We particularly encourage submissions that leverage novel empirical methodologies and offer actionable insights for policymakers and practitioners. This Special Issue aspires to deepen understanding of how public finance can drive sustainable economic growth, advance social welfare, and build resilience to economic and environmental challenges.
