扩大投票权是否一定会增加公共开支,还是会导致开支减少?我们在1868年、1871年和1886年在英格兰和威尔士的一个市政行政区的小组中,在与健康相关的城市设施上的公共支出的背景下研究了这个问题。我们发现有证据表明,城市设施支出和地方投票权的扩大之间存在U型关系。我们的纳税人民主模型表明,紧缩效应与通过全国范围的改革赋予中产阶级选举权有关,而这些改革在普通行政区可能不如帕累托。
Does an extension of the voting franchise always increase public spending or can it be a source of retrenchment? We study this question in the context of public spending on health-related urban amenities in a panel of municipal boroughs from England and Wales in 1868, 1871 and 1886. We find evidence of a U-shaped relationship between spending on urban amenities and the extension of the local voting franchise. Our model of taxpayer democracy suggests that the retrenchment effect was related to enfranchisement of the middle class through nation-wide reforms and that these reforms might have been Pareto inferior in the average borough.
