American Journal of Political Science, EarlyView.Abstract Central states have often relied on local elites to implement policies in peripheral areas.

Yet, in many low‐income countries, citizens do not make formal payments to the state or forego engaging with the state altogether due to vulnerability to opportunistic demands by state agents.
