Regional Disparity of Financial Right & China's Regional Inequality:A Theoretical Hypothesis

Financial right is the legitimate right that each level government owns under the circumstance of fiscal decentralization.In a word,each level government should has its equal and independent financial right,which affects and even runs local eco-social performance.As we all know,China has carried out several fiscal system reforms since reform and opening up in 1978,which give local governments more freedom to control financial resource.However,the financial right local governments get is unequal in different regions,which the author names it as the phenomenon of regional disparity of financial right. That is,some local governments have possessed more fiscal ability,others get less and even shown fiscal disability gradually.According to the theoretical hypothesis,the author draws a conclusion that regional disparity of financial right is the key institutional factor leading to regional gap in contemporary China.This essay focuses on arguing its several characteristics,institutional reasons and also gives some policy suggestions in order to construct an equal financial right for most local governments.
