Résumé	Fiscal decentralization analysis examines how taxing, spending and borrowing powers are divided among levels of government — central, regional and local — and what that division means for efficiency, equity and accountability. Its theoretical foundation is the fiscal federalism tradition pioneered by Wallace Oates, whose 1972 book Fiscal Federalism and 1999 essay set out when decentralized provision improves welfare and how intergovernmental transfers should be designed. The method maps the assignment of revenues and expenditures across tiers, measures the degree of decentralization and the gap between subnational spending and own revenue, and assesses how these arrangements affect service delivery, redistribution and the accountability of governments to citizens.	A government trust survey is a population-based survey instrument for measuring how much citizens trust their public institutions and identifying the drivers of that trust. Building on the OECD's Trust in Government work, modern instruments treat trust not as a single mood but as a set of measurable expectations: that government is competent and reliable in delivering services, and that it acts on values such as integrity, openness, fairness and responsiveness. By surveying a representative sample of the population, weighting responses to the population, and analyzing trust alongside its drivers, the method produces comparable indicators that diagnose where and why public trust is high or low and what policy levers might raise it.
