Administrative Structure and Inner-Metropolitan Tax Competition
2020Co-Authors: Björn KauderAbstract:This paper considers the impacts of differently formed borders of municipalities on local business tax policy. First a model is presented that shows the dependence of the level of taxation on the Administrative Structure. Afterwards, data from Germany are employed to discover the effects of the number and size of municipalities within agglomerations. The results show that the Administrative Structure matters for the level of local business taxation. On the one hand, the core cities tax rate in a monocentric region is the lower, the more municipalities are situated within a certain distance from the city. This effect is the more important, the smaller the region that is considered. On the other hand, the tax of the core city is the higher, the larger its share in the agglomeration. Thereby, the result has more power for larger regions. The empirical results coincide with the results from standard tax competition theory.

Spatial Administrative Structure andIntra-Metropolitan Tax Competition
2020Co-Authors: Björn KauderAbstract:I investigate whether the spatial Administrative Structure of agglomerations is associatedwith local business tax rates in core cities of agglomerations. Using data for Germanmunicipalities, I define agglomerations based on distances and based on cumulativepopulation densities. The results show that the population share of the core in itsagglomeration is positively associated and the number of surrounding municipalities isnegatively associated with the tax rate of the core. When municipalities consolidate, thecore has the opportunity to increase the tax rate.

spatial Administrative Structure and intra metropolitan tax competition
Journal of Regional Science, 2015Co-Authors: Björn KauderAbstract:I investigate whether the spatial Administrative Structure of agglomerations is associated with local business tax rates in core cities of agglomerations. Using data for German municipalities, I define agglomerations based on distances and based on cumulative population densities. The results show that the population share of the core in its agglomeration is positively associated and the number of surrounding municipalities is negatively associated with the tax rate of the core. When municipalities consolidate, the core has the opportunity to increase the tax rate.

Environmental effect of flattening Administrative Structure on local water quality: a county-level analysis of China’s County-Power-Expansion reform
Journal of Cleaner Production, 2020Co-Authors: Deyong Song, Qi Zhang, Liuqingqing YangAbstract:Abstract This paper examines the environmental effect of flattening Administrative Structure on local water quality. By taking the County-Power-Expansion reform as a quasi-natural experiment for delayering, we employ the Generalized Difference-in-Differences (GDD) model and a unique county-level dataset from 2004 to 2010 to examine the impact of this reform on county water pollution. The results show that, after this reform, the water pollution indicators of biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), NH3-N, and Permanganate in pilot counties decrease by 21.9%, 21.8%, and 14.3%, respectively, while dissolved oxygen (DO) as a reverse pollution index increases by 5.74%. Through the identification of intermediary mechanisms, this paper finds that the Structure upgrading effect, the fiscal improvement effect, and demand anti-driving effect are the main factors. In conclusion, delayering can significantly improve local environmental performance. It provides a new direction for the local government to implement a comprehensive flattening structural reform and win the battle against severe environmental pollution.

Faculty–librarian Administrative Structure and collaborative activities supporting teaching and research at Vietnamese universities: A qualitative study
IFLA Journal, 2020Co-Authors: Thi Lan Nguyen, Kulthida TuamsukAbstract:This article reports on the Administrative Structure and collaborative activities of faculty and librarians within Vietnamese universities to evaluate their impact on teaching and research, as well as their collaborative benefits, advantages and disadvantages. The authors used a qualitative method to determine the current status of collaboration between faculty and librarians, and conducted 29 in-depth interviews with key participants at Vietnamese universities. The findings indicated that such collaboration was often based on the collaborators’ personal circumstances and that librarian liaison partnerships primarily related to the faculty’s profession, personality and attitudes at different units. Further, universities focused on collaborative activities to support teaching and research – designing syllabi, research support activities and collection development. The results of this study will be useful for stakeholders at universities in reviewing the effectiveness and limitations of collaborative relationships.
