本文分析了地方和中央学校财政和政策的案例，如代金券、分类援助和平均援助。一个理想的学校财政体系应该通过确保每个人投资于对他来说最优的教育数量来实现效率和公平。作者评估了每项政策的经验证据，以及其优点和重要性。她的结论是，集中财政的理论论点不仅夸大了效率与公平的权衡，而且实际上为将地方学校财政与分类援助和经济状况调查券结合起来的系统提供了更好的论据。
This paper analyzes cases made for local and centralized school finance and policies such as vouchers, categorical aid, and equalization aid. An ideal system of school finance would achieve efficiency and equity by ensuring every person invests in the amount of schooling that is socially optimal for him. The author evaluates the empirical evidence for, and the merit and importance of, arguments for each policy. She concludes that the theoretical arguments for centralized finance not only exaggerate the efficiency-equity tradeoff but actually make better arguments for a system combining local school finance with categorical aid and means-tested vouchers.
