| Research Abstract |
The common characteristics of intergovernmental fiscal relation in Taiwan and Korea are as follows.
1. The basic unit of local autonomy is not cities, towns and villages. In korea it is County, in Taiwan Prefecture.
2. The scale of national expenditure is much larger than that of local expenditure. One of the causes is concentration in national government of tax. Another is that they have few adiustment systems of local public finance.
3. As part of political democratization, they are engaged in a reform of local public finance. But they still have achieved few results.
