Research Abstract |
The layout of local government finance system should be arranged in accordance with what indispensable services could be delivered most appropriately for the inhabitants. This is drawn from the Constitutional experience in the United Kingdom, the forerunner of "local government in a unitary state". This research project has demonstrated this Constitutional arrangement is acceptable, not only in Japan but also in Korea and Taiwan. To what extent this arrangement is feasible in China, almost a federal state in her territorial size and population, has also become visible by this research study.
