This book was released on 2022-11-14 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Drawing on field-based data and experiences from the practice of democratic decentralization and local governance over the last three decades in Ghana, this book examines whether and how democratic decentralization and local governance reforms in developing countries have produced the anticipated development outcomes. In seventeen related contributions, the authors present four relevant focal themes, including conceptual and historical trajectories of decentralization and local governance; institutional choice, democratic representation, and poverty reduction; local governance, resource capacity, and service delivery; and non-state actors, local governance and sustainable development. The book blends perspectives of scholars, practitioners, and policy-makers to provide a holistic analysis of linkages between decentralization, local governance, and sustainable development efforts, presenting a novel and useful guide for science, policy, and practice of bottom-up governance and development. It provides relevant lessons and experiences for scholars, policy-makers, and development practitioners in Africa in particular and developing countries in general.

Download or read book Two Decades of Local Government Reforms in Ghana for Good Governance written by Benedict Yiyugsah and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The responsibility of administering most modern nation states on longer solely rest on Central Governments. Several institutions, tiers of government and actors, located at the sub-national level, now increasingly take part in the governance processes of many states. Decentralisation, as the process is popularly called, is said to promote good democratic governance as it enhances participation, accountability, transparency and government responsiveness. This book is packed with information on decentralisation in Ghana to the contrary as it establishes that Ghana's decentralisation programme is precisely intended to limit the discretionary authority and capacity of Local Government and hence, maintain overall Central Government control. For this reason, the Author uses the phrase 'the politics of central-local power relations' in this context to describe the political process where Central Governments in Ghana use decentralisation as a conduit to promote their own interests and usually inclusive of the retention (and even consolidation) of central powers.

Download or read book Public Sector Reform in Developing and Transitional Countries written by Christopher Rees and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over recent decades, decentralization has emerged as a key Public Sector Reform strategy in a wide variety of international contexts. Yet, despite its emergence as a ubiquitous activity that cuts across disciplinary lines in international development, decentralization is understood and applied in many different ways by parties acting from contrary perspectives. This book offers a fascinating insight into theory and practice surrounding decentralization activities in the Public Sectors of developing and transitional countries. In drawing on the expertise of established scholars, the book explores the contexts, achievements, progress and challenges of decentralization and local governance. Notably, the contributions contained in this book are genuinely international in nature; the chapters explore aspects of decentralization and local governance in contexts as diverse as Ghana, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Morocco, Tanzania, Uganda, and Viet Nam. In summary, by examining the subject of decentralization with reference to specific developing and transitional Public Sector contexts in which it has been practiced, this book offers an excellent contribution towards a better understanding of the theory and practice of decentralization and local governance in international settings. This book was published as a special double issue of the International Journal of Public Administration.
