Abstract
The 1970s marked a major break in the politics of public finance as the limits of the postwar fiscal contract were reached under the combined pressure of inflation, the oil shock and the collapse of the Bretton Woods regime. The most striking outcomes were the policies of Thatcher and Reagan, but the Labour and Social Democratic governments of Britain and West Germany also had to respond in ways that this paper will consider in a comparative perspective
