TY - GEN T1 - Growing public : social spending and economic growth since the eighteenth century. A1 - Lindert, Peter H. LA - English PP - Cambridge, UK ; New York PB - Cambridge University Press YR - 2004 UL - https://ebooks.jgu.edu.in/Record/ebsco_acadsubs_ocm71332850 AB - Growing Public examines the question of whether social policies that redistribute income impose constraints on economic growth. Lindert argues that, contrary to the intuition of many economists and the ideology of many politicians, social spending has contributed to, rather than inhibited, economic growth.
