I have
a thesis student that wants to examine the impacts of varying levels of fiscal
decentralization and/or state capture (hypotheses from Sonja Walti work) on
environmental regulation/performance in Russia. He came across some good
data on state capture at regional levels in Russia but
For data on state capture/decentralization and fiscal information (i.e.,
not environmental indicators), I would suggest he look at work by Joel
Hellman on state capture, Daniel Triesman on fiscal decentralization and
maybe even Gerald Easter on fiscal issues.
