An approach to zero-base budgeting
Abstract
The model of zero-base budgeting developed by one school of social work as part of its annual budget request is described. It represents an innovation in the more usual zero-base approaches and is designed to meet the needs of the nonprofit enterprise--education and other human services activities. It is further described within Wildavsky's theoretical budget framework, and its usefulness within that political framework is assessed. As a case study of specific budget technique within a particular budget process, the model should have wide applicability and usefulness to others similarly engaged. (Journal abstract, edited.)
