| contents | The inter-municipal cooperation in Switzerlandand the trend towards amalgamation Nils C. Soguel Estudios Territoriales inter amalgamation fiscal federalism fiscal equivalence municipal cooperation In Switzerland, the ongoing reforms of fiscal federalism put municipalitiesunder increased fiscal stress. A majority of the municipalities hadresponded by increasing the cooperation with neighbouring municipalitiesover the last few years. Simultaneously, many discuss or aredirectly involved in a possible amalgamation project. Accordingly, thepaper aimed at describing how cooperation has presently developedbetween Swiss municipalities, in order to illustrate the existing trendtowards amalgamation. Current surveys helped us estimate thegrowing importance of inter-municipal arrangements together withthe surge of amalgamations. A further goal was to investigate ifcantonal financial incentives to municipal amalgamation essentiallybenefit the cantonal community, following the fiscal equivalenceprinciple, or if they rather benefit amalgamating municipalities. Inreality, equivalence does not exist. However, this may possibly be thecondition to reduce inequality among amalgamating municipalities 2006 artículo científico 1697-6223 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=50400607 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=504 Urban Public Economics Review application/pdf Universidade de Santiago de Compostela Urban Public Economics Review (España) Num.6 |
