In this paper we develop a comparative analysis of the impact of fiscal decentralization vis-à-vis tax revenue sharing on the government&#8217;s effort to redistribute income. The main findings are: first, the size of the national budget for public redistribution is the same under fiscal decentralization and tax revenue sharing. Second, different fiscal institutions lead to different regional distributions of public transfers. Third, when choosing between decentralization and tax revenue sharing, there is a tradeoff between the efficiency and the regional effort of the government to redistribute income.]]></p></abstract>

En este artículo, se desarrolla un análisis comparativo del impacto en el esfuerzo del gobierno por redistribuir el ingreso, entre la política de descentralización y la de compartir el ingreso fiscal. Los principales resultados son: primero, el tamaño del presupuesto en redistribución es el mismo para una economía con descentralización y en la que se comparte el ingreso fiscal. Segundo, las instituciones fiscales implican una asignación diferente en la distribución regional de transferencias públicas. Tercero, al escoger entre descentralización y compartir el ingreso fiscal, se observa un intercambio entre la eficiencia y la distribución regional de las transferencias públicas.]]></p></abstract>
