双重生存理性与地方政府权力清单建设质量——基于安徽省跨县数据的计量分析

Dual Survival Rationality and Quality of Power List Construction of Local Governments:Based on Quantitative Analysis of Cross County Data in Anhui Province

面对非选举问责体制下的政治考核压力和分税制以来的财政压力,中国地方政府表现出双重理性,即政治考核压力下的规避问责理性与财政压力下的预算扩张理性。双重理性对于被寄予厚望的地方政府权力清单制度建设产生了较大影响。以安徽省为例,对县级政府权力清单制度推行情况进行了在线质量评估。量化分析显示,地方政府规避问责理性程度越高、自由可支配财力越大,权力清单在线质量就越好;地方政府自我预算扩张理性越强,权力清单在线质量就越差。提升地方政府的权力清单建设水准,应主要从简政放权、完善监督与开放公民评议等基本路径展开。

In the face of the pressure of political assessment under the non electoral accountability system and the financial pressure since the system of tax distribution,China＇s local governments have shown dual rationality,that is,under the pressure of political assessment,avoiding rationality of accountability and budget expansion under the financial pressure.Dual rationality has a great impact on the construction of the power list system of local governments.Taking Anhui Province as an example,online quality assessment was made on the implementation of the system of power list of local governments.Our quantitative analysis displays that,the higher the degree of avoiding accountability and the more freely available financial resources of local governments have,the better the power list online quality is;the higher the degree of rational self-interest of the governments,the worse the power list online quality is.Therefore,the standard of the government power list construction should mainly be improved from basic paths such as expansion of decentralization,perfection of supervision and openness of citizen reviews.
