By: Fong, Brian C.H.
Material type: materialTypeLabelBookPublisher: International Review of Administrative Sciences Description: 89(1), Mar, 2023: p.292-311.Subject(s): Budget oversight, Hong Kong, Macao, Open budget, Survey, Public budgeting, Territorial autonomous In: International Review of Administrative SciencesSummary: Traditionally, comparative budgeting scholars have focused on analysing budget oversight at the sovereign state level. Budget oversight at the territorial autonomy level remains largely under-investigated. Drawing on the Open Budget Survey methodology, this study is a pioneering attempt to compare the budget oversight institutions and practices in Hong Kong and Macao under the ‘one country, two systems’ model. This study finds that the varying practices of budget oversight of Hong Kong and Macao are the consequence of their different bases of opposition politics, including democratic opposition, the media and civil society. This study extends the research focus of existing comparative budgeting literature from sovereign states to territorial autonomies. Thus, it has important implications for budget oversight analysis and policy worldwide. – Reproduced
