Abstract

¿Están infrafinanciadas las comunidades autónomas? ¿Es adecuado el actual reparto de recursos entre ellas y las demás administraciones españolas? La presente nota aborda estas cuestiones desde dos perspectivas complementarias. En primer lugar se analiza hasta qué punto las reivindicaciones autonómicas podrían estar avaladas por la historia reciente de las cuentas de nuestras administraciones públicas. Como se verá, no parece que los datos den la razón a las autonomías, pero en cualquier caso resulta difícil alcanzar conclusiones claras sobre el tema porque no hay criterios objetivos que permitan calcular las necesidades absolutas de gasto de una administración. Esta idea es la base de una objeción más de principios al argumento autonómico, que sirve de punto de partida para un enfoque alternativo centrado en el reparto de instrumentos tributarios entre administraciones en vez de en el reparto de recursos. Desde esta perspectiva, el reforzamiento de la responsabilidad fiscal de las comunidades autónomas ha de ser una de las grandes prioridades de la próxima reforma de su sistema de financiación.
