Public finance is the raising of capital, usually through the raising of government bonds or measures funded by tax/tarriffs/fees. This contrast to private financing, where the profit motive (e.g. rate of return, equity position) determines whether or not a project gets financing.
Public finance generally finances those projects that benefit the public, are natural monopolies (e.g. power utilities) or should not be in the realm of private industry (e.g. police, military, judicial systems). For example, roads, schools, sports facilities, parks, educational programs, ports, airports and sewers all are typically financed through government bonds or tax measures.
