| Abstract: | In this article the role of fragmentation in determining fiscal outcomes over the 1970-95 period is studied on a panel of 19 OECD countries. First the notion of fragmentation of fiscal policy-making as the degree to which the costs of a dollar of aggregate expenditure are internalized by individual decision-makers if defined. Empirically, this notion has two key logical components: the number of decision-makers and the rules of the game, or the budget process. |
