In the aftermath of the financial crisis, many concluded that fiscal austerity was necessary but feared it would lead to electoral ruin. Rooted in a detailed understanding of the mass politics of government borrowing and drawing on in-depth case studies of the UK, Germany, and the USA, this book explains why ruin was not the inevitable outcome.
