The journal article „Haushaltsregeln auf lokaler Ebene – ein europaweiter Vergleich“ by Dr. Christian Person has been published in the current volume of ZKF – Zeitschrift für Kommunalfinanzen (issue 07/2020).

By this, German regulatory experience is compared to regulatory practice in other European countries, thereby allowing for the identification of alternative regulatory styles to steer local budgets.
