Using data from 2017 to 2022 for all counties in North Carolina, we apply Granger causality analysis to examine the relationship between a county’s economic growth and its fiscal condition. Our findings show that fiscal health significantly influences local economic growth, indicating a unidirectional causality where better fiscal health can facilitate economic development. These observations add much-needed empirical evidence to the continuing literature on the importance of economic growth and the related fiscal policy choices.}, journal={Public Finance Journal}, author={Afshan, Saman and Vien, Ha}, year={2024}, month={Aug} } @inbook{afshan_minkowitz_mcdonald_2024, title={Teaching Effectively Online}, url={https://doi.org/10.4324/9781032671291-7}, DOI={10.4324/9781032671291-7}, author={Afshan, Saman and Minkowitz, Honey and McDonald, Bruce D.}, year={2024}, month={Sep} } @article{afshan_2023, title={Municipal fiscal stress, bankruptcies, and other financial emergencies}, volume={4}, ISSN={["1467-9299"]}, url={https://doi.org/10.1111/padm.12930}, DOI={10.1111/padm.12930}, abstractNote={Public AdministrationVolume 101, Issue 4 p. 1604-1606 BOOK REVIEW Municipal fiscal stress, bankruptcies, and other financial emergencies.
