520 $a This dissertation addresses two issues which are of relevance for developing countries. The first one refers to the concerns of fiscal decentralization and its impact on welfare, while the second concentrates on testing the existence of dual labor markets.
520 $a The first chapter offers a theoretical explanation of the difficulties embodied in a process of fiscal decentralization from national to sub-national governments, as it is empirically observed in numerous developing countries. A game theoretic framework is used to show that the central government's lack of a credible commitment technology, used to penalize sub-national governments' fiscal profligacy, may give rise to an incomplete level of fiscal decentralization. Two different sets of equilibria are obtained. In one of them the central government will confer complete taxing autonomy to the sub-national governments, while in the other the government maintains the taxing authority since it is optimal to do so. In this sense, the economy falls in an inefficient level of fiscal decentralization, as measured in terms of revenue collection.
520 $a The second chapter, aimed at testing the existence of dual labor markets, uses twenty seven years of household data for the most important urban area of Argentina. Dual labor market theory states that labor markets can be characterized by the coexistence of two different sectors: one with higher wages, longer tenures and on-the-job training while the other with lower wages and no returns to tenure. There is also a rationing mechanism that prevents some workers from the latter sector to move to the former one. Though this seems a plausible characterization of labor markets in developing countries, very few empirical studies have conducted a robust validation of this hypothesis. An endogenous switching model with unknown regime is estimated. The results confirm the hypothesis of dualism. However, the differences between the two sectors have significantly changed over time.
