Abstract

From a political standpoint, the current Fiscal Coordination Law is surprising, since it redistributed federal transfers without causing an upheaval among the federal states. But, as this study shows, this law is even more surprising from an economic point of view, since it does not encourage economic activity and it does not stimulate the tax collection effort, as dictated by the original spirit of the initiative.
