摘要

本文研究了奥地利在税收和转移支付之后,市级和省级公共社会支出对当地收入不平等的影响。我们利用空间多层次模型,分析了三个空间尺度(市级、县级和省级)对市级收入不平等的影响。我们的分析表明,公共社会支出对当地基尼系数的影响不仅在各省之间存在差异,在各市之间也存在差异,这表明社会支出的潜在缓冲作用具有高度的地方性。进一步将公共社会总支出分为三个不同的类别(教育、医疗卫生、社会保障),可以发现社会保障支出对各省地方不平等的影响最大,而医疗卫生支出在各省都没有明显的影响。本文介绍的方法和结果在国际上引起了决策者和研究人员的兴趣,他们希望研究其他国家是否也存在同样的模式。

The role of public social expenditure for mitigating local income inequality: An investigation across spatial scales in Austria

The role of public social expenditure for mitigating local income inequality: An investigation across spatial scales in Austria

This paper investigates the role of municipal and provincial public social spending for local income inequality after taxes and transfers in Austria. We utilize a spatial multi-level model, which allows us to analyze the contribution of three spatial scales (municipal, district, and provincial level) to municipal income inequality. Our analysis shows that the effect of public social spending on local Gini indices does not only differ across provinces but also across municipalities which indicates that the potential cushioning effect of social expenditure is highly localized. Further splitting total public social expenditure into three distinct categories (education, health, social protection) reveals that spending on social protection has the highest effect on local inequality across all provinces, while health spending does not exert a discernible influence in any province. The method and results presented in this paper are of international interest for policymakers and researchers who aim to investigate whether the same patterns hold true in other countries.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Regional Science (JRS) publishes original analytical research at the intersection of economics and quantitative geography. Since 1958, the JRS has published leading contributions to urban and regional thought including rigorous methodological contributions and seminal theoretical pieces. The JRS is one of the most highly cited journals in urban and regional research, planning, geography, and the environment. The JRS publishes work that advances our understanding of the geographic dimensions of urban and regional economies, human settlements, and policies related to cities and regions.
