ABSTRACT

ur study tries to analyze whether the similarity of affiliation of governors with presidential’s party affects favorable distribution of discretionary grants by exhibiting their political influences. The analysis unit is Korean high-level local governments and Korean high-level local governments are divided into two subgroups (9 provinces and 6 metropolitan cities), trying to test a difference between two subgroups. According to the results, political party affiliation of governors does not have any significant influence on discretionary grants, when the whole local governments are analyzed. However, when dividing local governments into two subgroups, the findings are turned out to be different. In case of 6 metropolitan cities, political party affiliation of governors has a favorable influence on discretionary grants based on their political power; however, in case of 9 provinces, it negatively affects distributed discretionary grants.
