초록

Decentralization is believed to occur when the bargaining range of central government is narrowed vis-à-vis the subnational government. However, Asian federalism shows an idiosyncratic pattern since the nationwide leaders are exploiting decentralization in order to keep their entrenched rights. In this case, the bargaining power of subnational government remains stagnant. When representative democracy is not sufficiently matured and there is no robust institution, nationwide elites have frequently entrenched political resources and devolve fiscal and administrative autonomy to local provinces in return. Then, subnational governments would be subordinated to the center due to their reliance on intergovernmental transfers. The expansion of self-rule is a major trend of Asia, but it does not necessarily lead to an allowance of shared-rule.

Abstract

Decentralization is believed to occur when the bargaining range of central government is narrowed vis-à-vis the subnational government. However, Asian federalism shows an idiosyncratic pattern since the nationwide leaders are exploiting decentralization in order to keep their entrenched rights. In this case, the bargaining power of subnational government remains stagnant. When representative democracy is not sufficiently matured and there is no robust institution, nationwide elites have frequently entrenched political resources and devolve fiscal and administrative autonomy to local provinces in return. Then, subnational governments would be subordinated to the center due to their reliance on intergovernmental transfers. The expansion of self-rule is a major trend of Asia, but it does not necessarily lead to an allowance of shared-rule.
