We study strategic decentralization in the provision of a global public good. A federation, with the aim of maximizing the aggregate utility of its members, may find it advantageous to decentralize the decision-making, so that its members act autonomously to maximize their own utility. If the political structures are chosen simultaneously, federations that are larger or more sensitive to the public good have more incentives to remain centralized. This is not always true if the political structures are chosen sequentially. A federation that always remains centralized in the simultaneous game may choose to commit to decentralization if it moves first.
