?:abstract
  • Existing explanations of individual preferences for decentralization and secession focus on collective identity, economic considerations, and party politics. This paper contributes to this literature by showing that preferences for fiscal and political decentralization are also driven by concern about the quality of government in the face of corruption. It makes two claims. First, information on national-level corruption decreases satisfaction with national politicians, and subsequently increases preferences for decentralization and secession. Second, information on regional-level corruption pushes citizens of highly corrupt regions to prefer national retrenchment and unitary states. The effects of this political compensation mechanism crosscut national identities and involve regions that are not ethnically or economically different from the core. We test our argument using a survey experiment in Spain and confirm its cross-national generalizability with data from the European Values Study. (xsd:string)
