Abstract: This empirical study explores the relationship between public sector size (in fiscal terms) and the degree of fiscal centralization at the national level of government. A cross-sectional model is estimated using both ordinary and two-stage least squares techniques for two international samples. Two different measures for public sector centralization are used In all cases no significant relationship is found between the size of government and fiscal centralization.
