Abstract

The article examines the fi scal federalism policies as an economic mechanism for prevention of confl icts driven by population diversity. We suggest an optimization model of transfers in multiregional diverse countries. By using cross-country regression analysis for 57 countries in 1970– 1999, we confi rm theoretical basis of the model.
