| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study investigated the causes and consequences of redistribution policy of Japanese local governments. First, I examined the long-term panel data of Japanese municipal settlements to quantify how they respond to fiscal shocks. Second, I analyzed the effects of influenza vaccination subsidies to find that they raised vaccination rates and negatively correlated with the number of weeks with a high influenza alert. Third, I examined the determinants of voluntary vaccination subsidies. The results suggest that the subsidy policy is affected by those of neighboring local governments in the same prefectures.
