Credit HoursRecitation/Lecture HoursStudio HoursClinical HoursLab Hours


The budget is examined as a major instrument of power, policy, outputs and outcomes at the national, state and local levels of government. The history, development, and changing forms and uses of the budget process have altered American politics in a significant fashion. Attention is given to the various modes of budgeting and their usefulness, including line-item, program, PPBS, and zero-base formats. The impact of political-budgetary considerations on quasi-public organizations such as health care organizations, foundations, and child care agencies is also reviewed.
