講座内容簡介:Whether the Tax Sharing System (TSS) established in 1994 has deteriorated the fiscal capacity of subnational governments has been a heated debate. In this research we argue we cannot make an accurate estimate on this issue without looking through the intraprovincial fiscal revenue sharing rules to examine how fiscal revenues are divided between the provincial government and sub-provincial governments (county governments in Zhejiang case), while in the meantime we need to control for the fiscal relationship between the central government and the subnational governments embodied at county level.  Taking these factors into account, and using county-level fiscal data from China's Zhejiang province between 1994 and 2005, we find Zhejiang’s intraprovincial revenue sharing rules favor county governments in two ways: it has improved the latter’s fiscal autonomy in terms of using their own revenues to meet expenditures, and it helped enhance county governments’ fiscal capacity through the province-to-county general transfers. In addition, the intraprovincial fiscal revenue sharing and transfers reduce fiscal disparity between counties. Our research is the first to reassess the role of fiscal decentralization/centralization on subnational government’s fiscal capacity in the context of TSS as well as the intraprovincial fiscal system.
