在本文中,我们研究了防止国家任何地区分裂威胁的补偿计划。我们证明,在对公民偏好分布的相当普遍的假设下,存在防分裂的转移计划。此外,我们表明,这些补偿方案需要一定程度的地区间部分均等:优势地区和劣势地区之间的差距必须缩小,但永远不应该完全消除。我们证明,在全国公民均匀分布的情况下,防分裂条件产生了对弱势地区50%的补偿规则。
In this paper we examine compensation schemes that prevent a threat of secession by any of a country's regions. We prove that, under quite general assumptions on the distribution of citizens' preferences, there exist transfer schemes that are secession-proof. Moreover, we show that these compensation schemes entail a degree of partial equalization among regions: the gap between advantaged regions and disadvantaged regions has to be reduced but it should never be completely eliminated. We demonstrate that in the case of a uniform distribution of the nation's citizens, the secession-proof conditions generate the 50 percent compensation rule for disadvantaged regions.
