Abstract
The effects of fiscal decentralization on economic growth are analyzed. A theoretical framework is developed that builds\r\non the relationships between government size and growth and between decentralization and government size.\r\nThe framework is tested empirically on a panel of 25 European countries observed between 1995 and 2015. The\r\neconometric results show that the relationship between expenditure decentralization and growth is bell shaped. The\r\npaper also focuses on expenditure composition. In this respect, the relationship between investment decentralization\r\nand growth is an inverted bell-shaped curve: there is a critical mass of decentralized investments beyond which it is\r\npossible to enhance growth.
