Abstrakty
The purpose of the article is to examine the influence of financial, socio-economic, and environmental degradation factors on the expenditure scope of environmental federalism. The panel data models were estimated based on 26 European countries for the period between 2007 and 2020. The research hypothesis of the article posits that the sound fiscal position of the local government and the financial sustainability stemming from it deepens the expenditure side of environmental federalism, especially when considering the population and its structure, the size of the economy, population, and the pollution generated by it. The article reveals that local government avoidance of both deficits and excessive indebtedness ends up promoting a higher scope of expenditure side of environmental federalism. In addition, in European countries, the significance of expenditures on environmental protection visible in local budgets is increased for smaller economies that are less environmentally degraded(original abstract)
Celem artykułu jest zbadanie wpływu czynników finansowych, społeczno-ekonomicznych i tych dotyczących degradacji środowiska na zakres strony wydatkowej federalizmu środowiskowego. Oszacowano modele panelowe dotyczące 26 krajów Europy dla lat 2007-2020. W artykule sformułowano hipotezę badawczą mówiącą o tym, że stabilna sytuacja fiskalna samorządu terytorialnego i wynikająca z niej stabilność finansowa pogłębia stronę wydatkową federalizmu środowiskowego, szczególnie biorąc pod uwagę wielkość populacji i jej strukturę, wielkość gospodarki i emitowane tam zanieczyszczenia. W artykule ukazano, że unikanie przez samorządy terytorialne deficytów budżetowych i wzrostu zadłużenia przyczynia się do poszerzenia zakresu strony wydatkowej federalizmu środowiskowego. Ponadto, w krajach Europy znaczenie wydatków samorządu terytorialnego na ochronę środowiska jest zwiększane w mniejszych gospodarkach, które charakteryzują się niższą degradacją środowiska.(abstrakt oryginalny)
