抄録
This paper introduces the election process to the traditional decentralized leadership model, where the central government does not have a pre-commitment ability, and interregional transfer is optimally designed ex post. In the traditional decentralized leadership model, it has been shown that local public good provision is distorted by ex post transfer. The purpose of this paper is to examine how the introduction of the election process affects inefficiencies in the decentralized leadership situation. Our results show that the direction of this distortion depends on the commitment environment, and the degree of this distortion depends on the degree of spillover.
