We argue that the need of support from below, and therefore the need of support-buying, varies with the degree of power concentration among the authoritarian leadership. Compared with the scenario in which a few leaders have concentrated more power in their hands, when power are dispersed more evenly among political leaders, they face more competition, more uncertainties and risks, providing them with greater incentive of dispensing benefits to their constituents in exchange of their loyalty and support. To test the theory, this study uses a provincial-year panel data spanning 2003-2012 to examine how provincial power concentration in a provincial leadership is related with land finance within its jurisdiction, a policy practice that tilts the interest distribution disproportionately towards local politicians at the costs of the marginalized and powerless groups. The empirical results robustly show the less (more) power concentrated in the provincial leaders, the greater (less) extent the province will allow the practice of land finance to please the local officials.","PeriodicalId":132360,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Other Political Economy: National","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126570922","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

If sick pay is set by the government and not paid for by firms, it induces the trade union to lower wages. This mitigates the positive impact on absence. Moreover, a union may oppose higher sick pay if it reduces labour supply sufficiently. Better employee health tends to foster wage demands. If the union determines both wages and sick pay, we identify situations in which it will substitute wages for sick pay because adverse absence effects can be mitigated.","PeriodicalId":132360,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Other Political Economy: National","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-11-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127096079","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We develop an imperfect Tiebout competition model in which households have no information about other jurisdictions (moving decisions are blind), and local jurisdictions operate as revenue-maximizing Leviathans. We show that, even under such harsh assumptions, jurisdictions will not increase taxes without also increasing the quality of their public services. The model also opens the door for understanding various possible vicious spirals, e.g. as a result of factor prices shocks, co-production problems, and income-based sorting. We also show that, in general, the model does not lead to the calculus of consent optimum, which opens the possibility for conceptualizing which constitutional rules would tend to constrain the system to evolve towards optimum levels of centralization or decentralization across all public issues. Last but not least, because the model involves positive moving costs, we explain the origins of voice, as an alternative to exit. When people do not engage in exit, either because they still hold up hope that public services will improve or because they do not have the resources to move, they increase their involvement in other activities such as voice and co-production.","PeriodicalId":132360,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Other Political Economy: National","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133794345","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, no published work seems to be available on efficiency analysis using spatial data dealing with possible spatial dependence between regions. This article considers a stochastic frontier model with decomposition of inefficiency into an idiosyncratic and a spatial, spillover component. Exact posterior distributions of parameters are derived, and computational schemes based on Gibbs sampling with data augmentation are proposed to conduct simulation-based inference and efficiency measurement. The new method is illustrated using production data for Italian regions (1970–1993). Clearly, further theoretical and empirical research on the subject would be of great interest.","PeriodicalId":132360,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Other Political Economy: National","volume":"58 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130236188","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The paper argues that the main motivations of local government to sell land are to promote industrial growth and to enhance government fiscal capacity. These two hypotheses are tested using prefecture‐level data covering approximately 330 municipalities during the period of 1999–2007. The paper finds that industrial output and fiscal expenditure increase by approximately 1.8% and 1.0%, respectively, if the area of land sale doubles. Evidence also shows that land sale promotes industrial growth by boosting fixed asset investment and foreign direct investment. Interestingly, the paper also finds that the land‐sale strategy of local governments is more effective in the eastern provinces than in other regions.","PeriodicalId":132360,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Other Political Economy: National","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131787752","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The manipulation of OAA only occurred in states with intermediate sizes of the elderly population. In addition, this manipulation increased with the degree of political competition.

However, the associated enlarged span of control of the upper-level governments, has led to a reduction in county government's total public expenditure and pro-growth expenditure. Overall, the flattening of the government hierarchy has a negative effect on economic performance.","PeriodicalId":132360,"journal":{"name":"ERN: Other Political Economy: National","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134182046","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
