  This study represents the most comprehensive review of fiscal federalism in the Russian Federation, presenting a strong case for greater decentralization. In this work, De Silva et al make a strong case for greater decentralization in Russia based not only on the traditional economic benefits of fiscal federalism but also on the political benefits from local government competition.
