El trabajo analiza cuestiones habitualmente discutidas en la literatura sobre descentralización fiscal, distinguiendo entre el enfoque normativo y el enfoque positivo (elección pública). Luego se abordan los problemas que se presentan en los países con importantes asimetrías regionales, como Argentina, para avanzar en la descentralización fiscal. Por último, el autor sugiere la necesidad de una reforma de las instituciones fiscales, a fin de mejorar aspectos de eficiencia y coordinación vertical responsable. Una administración federal de ingresos fiscales tendría un rol preponderante en la reforma.
