Artigo Are voters fiscal conservatives? Evidence from brazilian municipal elections(2010) Arvate, Paulo; Mendes, Marcos; Rocha, Alexandre; Tribunal Superior EleitoralOutro Public costs vs private gain : assessing the effect of alternative information treatments on electoral accountability(2017) Avenburg, Alejandro; Tribunal Superior EleitoralDo voters punish candidates with records of misuse of public funds? I address this question in the context of the 2008 and 2012 municipal elections for mayor and City Council legislator in Brazil. I use a unique dataset listing all candidates with accounts rejection records by any of the 34 Brazilian Audit Courts between 2004 and 2012 and electoral data. I test the effect of having accounts rejected on subsequent electoral returns. To test this effect I use matching and difference-in-difference. Results show evidence that voters punish both candidates for mayor and City Council legislator in most elections.Artigo Federalismo realocativo : sobre-representação legislativa e gastos públicos no hemisfério ocidental(2003) Gibson, Edward L.; Calvo, Ernesto F.; Falleti, Tulia G.Trata da economia política do federalismo e a questão básica examinada é se a sobre-representação de territórios (estados e províncias) nas legislaturas nacionais dos sistemas federais afeta a distribuição territorial dos gastos públicos dos governos federais. A hipótese testada é que afeta e a sobre-representação territorial produz uma distorção dos gastos federais que beneficia as populações que vivem em territórios sobrerepresentados. Para captar essa conexão entre sobre-representação territorial e a distribuição não-proporcional de fundos públicos foi introduzida uma distinção conceitual: os países em que essa conexão existe são identificados como casos de federalismo realocativo, enquanto que os países com padrões territoriais de gastos públicos que são proporcionais à população são identificados como casos de federalismo proporcional. Os argumentos baseiam-se em dados subnacionais dos quatro maiores países federais do hemisfério ocidental: Estados Unidos, Brasil, México e Argentina.Artigo Reelection incentives and political budget cycle : evidence from Brazil(2010) Klein, Fabio AlvimTests the presence of political budget cycle (PBC) in municipal elections in Brazil and checks whether mayors who adopt such policy have greater probability of reelection. Based on fiscal and electoral data of 5,406 Brazilian municipalities and applying the difference-in-differences econometric method as well as logistic regressions, the results provide some evidence of PBC in Brazil, although its magnitude and consistency varies depending on the years used as electoral and non-electoral years. On average, reelectable mayors spend close to 3% more in election years than nonreelectables. Moreover, reelectables who do run for reelection present a variation in spending which is close to 5% superior to that of non-reelectables and non-runners. Additionally, the results suggest that mayors who increase public spending during electoral periods have greater chances of being reelected, as long as such spending is done within deficit limits acceptable by voters.
