Sažetak
If the functioning of the fiscal system implies the functioning of democracy, then the interest in its smooth operation is understandable. Particularly important is its segment concerning the financing of local government and self-government. Well-regulated relations between the state and local communities is the basic prerequisite of economic, social and any other development. The decentralization of the fiscal system in the Republic of Croatia is one of the barriers standing in the way of achieving these goals. The crucial question is only which is the acceptable degree of the decentralization, economically and politically. The experiences of other European countries may serve as a basis for regulating the fiscal relations among the higher and the lower levels of government. The central government should retain only those responsibilities that cannot be carried out by the units of local government and self-government.
