  • Matching Problem of Civil Service
    MATCHING PROBLEM OF CIVIL SERVICE ASHUTOSH THAKUR Stanford GSB April 2, 2019 Abstract. Using a matching theory perspective, we analyze the extent to which exist- ing and alternative Indian Civil Service state assignment mechanisms can yield balance across three dimensions of interest: quality, embeddedness, and quota. We find that a recent change in the matching mechanism in 2008 has systematically skewed assignments by assigning relatively poor quality, outsider bureaucrats to bad state cadres: regions with external foreign conflict, states with internal political strife, and newly-formed states. This paper i) analyzes the causes of these imbalances, ii) assesses the impact of this mechanism change on state capacity, development outcomes, and bureaucratic performance, and iii) highlights trade-offs in implementing alternate mechanisms. By exploiting the exogenous change in mechanisms, we quantify the decrease in tax revenue for the bad cadres caused by the new mechanism and estimate the impact of exam rank on tax collection, allowing wel- fare analysis for counterfactual policies and mechanisms. Global balance in quality across state cadres is a unique constraint which arises when applying matching to political econ- omy settings, as the mechanism designer is a paternalistic central planner. Thus, less is left to the market compared to most canonical matching applications. On the other hand, the use of matching in political economy is also novel, and careful understanding of how different matching mechanisms address underlying correlations
