Abstract

The origins of government budgeting as a set of practices can be traced back a few centuries to when the rise of modern states in western Europe generated the need for bureaucratic systems to manage increasing tax revenues. This led to the systematization of “a document which forecasts and authorizes the annual receipts and expenditures of the state” and of the related processes and procedures. Since then, government budgets have developed into sophisticated systems for managing public resources and have drawn increasing attention from academics and researchers.
