		Argentina’s exports almost doubled during the convertibility era (from $12.3 billion in 1990 to $23.8 billion in 1999), contradicting the argument that fixed exchange rates hamper exports.

		Case studies of Argentina and Spain are used to provide insights into the way that the distribution of institutional and economic resources in multitiered polities shapes the extent to which the policy of transferring revenue and revenue authority to subnational governments can be exploited for political gain.
		This approach draws attention to the political conditions that inhibit the coordination of fiscal reform efforts between the different levels of government and perpetuate the financing of subnational spending with revenue collected by the national government.
		Second, the increasing role of regionalist parties in Spanish national politics and their acceptance in joint-policy mechanisms tilts the allocation of chosen federal transfers slightly in favor of economically developed and densely populated autonomous communities, which are generally governed by regionalist forces.

		Traditional party politics have been shaken up by the rise of Frepaso (Front for the Country in Solidarity) since 1994.
		A five-party coalition, Frepaso unites an eclectic mix of former, disenchanted Peronists (who left when Menem `subverted" the constitution in 1994 for what they saw as his own political ends) and center-left politicians anxious for greater social equality and cleaner government.
		Frepaso came late to accepting the basic tenets of economic policy, including peso convertibility, and still has to reassure financial markets from time to time of its commitment to the economic orthodoxy.
