Abstract

The new institutional economics literature has been stressing the role of informal institutions in affecting citizens’ preferences and shaping their attitudes and reaction to policymakers’ decisions (Chong and Gradstein, 2006; Alesina and Fuchs- Schündeln, 2007; Sabatini, 2008; Guven, 2011). Inspired by this research perspective, and to the best of our knowledge, we are the first to analyze the role of social capital in moderating the relational dynamics occurring between local government’s fiscal decisions and subsequent electoral outcomes.
