英文文献摘要：
We investigate the extent to which the quality of educational resources responds to the quality of governance in local government offices in Africa. We distinguish between learning resources that are more related to school enrolment and to drop-out rates, such as school fees and facilities, and those that are more related to quality of learning outcomes, such as textbook availability, teacher absenteeism or quality of teaching. Our subjective indicators of local governance are measured at the regional/provincial level, which is the smallest 0geographical location in our pooled Afrobarometer dataset. Our findings indicate that the quality of local governance has a similar effect on either type of learning resource, and that corrupt behaviors and ineffectiveness by local government officials increase the probability of the local inhabitants experiencing poor quality or lack of school resources, even after controlling for government expenditure on education. Our cross-region analysis with instrumental variables reports that a one-point increase in the measure of local government corruption is associated with an increase of about 0.4 to 0.7 points in the proportion of people who face poor quality or low levels of human or physical school resources in their local public schools. These values vary between 0.3 and 0.4 points for a one-point increase in the measure of local government ineffectiveness.
我们调查了教育资源质量在多大程度上与非洲地方政府办公室的治理质量相对应。我们区分了与入学率和辍学率相关的学习资源，如学费和设施，以及与学习成果质量相关的学习资源，如教科书的可用性、教师缺勤或教学质量。我们对地方治理的主观指标是在地区/省级层面进行衡量的，这是我们汇集的Afrobarometer数据集中最小的地理位置。我们的发现表明地方治理的质量对任何类型的学习资源也有类似的影响,和当地政府官员的腐败行为和无效增加当地居民的概率出现质量差或缺乏学校资源,甚至在控制了政府在教育上的支出。区域分析与辅助变量的测量报告,增加了一点地方政府腐败与增加约0.4到0.7点的比例的人面临质量差或低水平的人力或物力学校资源在当地的公立学校。如果衡量地方政府效率低下的指标每提高1个百分点，这些数值就会在0.3到0.4个百分点之间变化。
