The general trend evident from the findings of this article is one of an increase in fiscal allotments to Arab sector local authorities
Election year economics and political budget cycle in Israel – myth or reality
There is an issue which often emerges whenever nearing an election campaign – the fear of an ‘election year economics’ and the damage it brings. The fear is that the government will implement policies aimed at ‘benefiting the people’ in order to win re-election, such as increasing public expenditures, introducing tax cuts, raising salaries, etc. These actions, however, benefit the people only in the short term. Over the long run they may cause gr…
