- W1596163994 abstract "Abstract The literature on decentralization has traditionally focused on the study of its origins and consequences, leaving the analysis of its dynamics much further behind. We aim to fill this gap by creating a new theoretical framework in which the evolution of decentralization is contingent upon national incumbent’s strategies of political survival. Our argument conceives decentralization as a national incumbent’s choice that results from the interaction between national and subnational politicians’ relative powers and goals. Two dimensions define it: the degree of vertical integration of statewide parties (intraparty competition) and the blackmail role played by regional parties (interparty competition). We claim that, apart from structural factors, decentralization happens when it helps the national politician to survive in office. In our framework, the decision to implement further decentralization depends on, first, the degree of vertical integration of statewide parties - defined by the level of electoral independence between national and subnational copartisans and the degree of autonomy of regional branches within the organization. This will determine subnational incentive s to push for a downward transfer of power and resources and national incumbent's capacity to oppose it. Secondly, the existence of regional parties with strong presence in national legislatures will determine the extent to which national incumbent is willing to surrender power in exchange for regional parties' parliamentary support. The national incumbent faces a “Faustian” dilemma when decentralizing serves to preserve his power today but ties his future reelection down to additional surrenders of power." @default.
