Abstract:
|
Building on theories of regime change that focus on redistributional dynamics, this paper generates hypotheses regarding “non-tax” revenue and regime stability. Non-tax revenue, the importance of which has been largely ignored in theories of the public sector and regime change, is argued to include foreign aid as well as the majority of the oil revenue that accrues to governments. This non-tax revenue is hypothesized to affect redistribution in dictatorships but not in democracies, and to stabilize dictatorships but not democracies. These hypotheses are supported in cross-sectional time-series analyses of all non-OECD countries over a period of 1970-2002. |
