Abstract

In Chap. 8, we investigated taxation from the viewpoint of efficiency. In this chapter, we investigate government spending from the viewpoint of efficiency. Here, the notion of public goods is important. As explained in Chap. 1, public goods have properties of non-rivalness and non-excludability. Non-rivalness in consumption means that an increase in someone’s consumption does not reduce the availability of consumption for others. Non-excludability means that someone cannot be excluded from consuming a good because of technical or other reasons simply because she or he does not pay the price.
