The recent contributions investigating the relation between the degree of government fractionalisation and seem to miss the point there where they see the strategic interaction between coalition partners as a consequence of their incomplete information. Here we propose a model in which it is the lack of binding commitments that makes the decision-making process of a coalition difficult, which is related to the type of institutional environment We also reconsider some related topics, such as what happens when inf1ation is not distortionary, the role of exogenous shocks on public spending and the relevance of extra-economic motives.
