JWW also develops above his argument by quoting James A. Hanson and Enrique Baloyra on their case studies that support the his approach to budgetary analysis, see:

James A. Hanson "Federal Expenditures and 'Personalism' in the Mexican 'Institutional' Revolution (1977)

Enrique A. Baloyra, "Democratic and Dictatorial Budgeting: The Case of Cuba with Reference to Venezuela and Mexico" (1977)
