• Fiscal Decentralization and Regional Disparity: Evidence from Cross-Section and Panel Data (2009, neutral): “Moreover, a certain degree of subnational autonomy gives local officials the opportunity to attract businesses to their particular regions, for example, by granting tax privileges or offering other forms of assistance (Martinez-Vazquez and McNab, 2003).”
• Fiscal decentralization and regional disparities: The importance of good governance (2013, background): “Another important argument, and one that will focus on in this paper, is that fiscal decentralization may worsen the governance problems of sub-central governments thereby reducing or eliminating the expected benefits of decentralization (Martinez-Vazquez and McNab 2003).”
• Decentralization, forests and livelihoods: Theory and narrative (2007, background): “However, it is unclear whether and how fiscal decentralization actually affects economic growth (Martinez-Vazquez and McNab, 2003).”
• FISCAL DECENTRALIZATION AND ECONOMIC GROWTH: SPENDING VERSUS REVENUE DECENTRALIZATION (2013, background): “the impact of FD on economic growth rates, given that economic efficiency is the central argument used to support FD (Bardhan, 2002; Martínez-Vázquez and McNab, 2003).”
• Does decentralization matter for regional disparities? A cross-country analysis (2010, background): “First, the devolution of fiscal power from central to regional and local governments is a complex and multidimensional process (Martínez-Vázquez and McNab, 2003; Schneider, 2003).”
• Fiscal decentralization, macrostability and growth (2005, background): “For reviews of this li terature, see, among others, Oates (1999), Panizza (1999), and Martinez-Vazquez and McNab (2003).”
