This book was released on 2014-10-22 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bangladesh is known for its political unrest, corruption, poverty, malnutrition, low per capita income, high population growth rate, unemployment and underdevelopment still after four decades of self rule and experimentations with a variety of development policies and a series of five year plans. Bangladesh has a long history of decentralization and people's participation. Since, the independence of Bangladesh all of the governments took reformatory initiatives for administrative decentralization and ensuring people's participation but an effective participation system has not been institutionalized till today. It is widely argued that decentralization ensures people's participation, promotes political education and training, equal and efficient distribution of resources, trustworthy relationship among various actors of central and local governance and enhances responsiveness of the central government for citizen's demands and priorities. It has been widely accepted that poor decentralization system and week people's participation have constituted significant constraints on administrative, economic and political development since the independence of Bangladesh.

Download or read book Strengthening Local Governance in Bangladesh written by Shuvra Chowdhury and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-02-23 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the impact of Bangladesh's Local Government Act of 2009 on the functioning of the local governments or Union Parishads (UP), with a particular emphasis on people’s participation and accountability. Throughout the chapters, the authors review the existing legal framework of UP and its relation to social accountability, examine how much of the social participation is spontaneous and how much is politically induced, question the success of the Citizen's Charter and Right to Information acts as mechanisms for social accountability, and present suggestions to remedy some of the problems facing people's participation and accountability in the UP. This book fills existing gaps in the discourse by adding new information to the literature on development research and legal reforms in Bangladesh, specifically in how those legal reforms have led to strengthening or weakening people's participation in local government. The target audience for this book are students and researchers in Asian studies , international development studies, and public administration, as well as practitioners working in the local governments discussed.
Download or read book Democracy and Decentralisation in South Asia and West Africa written by Richard C. Crook and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1998-12-03 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an in-depth empirical study of four Asian and African attempts to create democratic, decentralised local governments in the late 1980s and 1990s. The case studies of Ghana, Cote d'Ivoire, Karnataka (India) and Bangladesh focus upon the enhancement of participation; accountability between people, politicians and bureaucrats; and, most importantly, on whether governmental performance actually improved in comparison with previous forms of administration. The book is systematically comparative, and based upon extensive popular surveys and local field work. It makes an important contribution to current debates in the development literature on whether 'good governance' and decentralisation can provide more responsive and effective services for the mass of the population - the poor and disadvantaged who live in the rural areas.

Download or read book Decentralization written by Mamtaj Uddin Ahmed and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2012-03-01 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Upazila Parishad (Sub-district Council) has been reintroduced as a rural local government body by the government of Bangladesh again in the year 2009. According to the enabling acts it i) has some mechanisms to increase efficiency, transparency and accountability of the service providers; ii) has its scope of a series of regular programs and projects aimed at poverty reduction; and iii) has its legal provisions to provide scope for peoples' participation in the government funded development programs and projects. Popular theories of decentralization have positive assumptions regarding these and most of the current studies show almost similar type of positive results. This is a firsthand assessment of the performance of the Sub-district Council in Bangladesh. Although the fieldwork of the study was carried out in a specific sub-district in Bangladesh, it is representative for generalization over the country. Based on the solid findings the author claimed that the Sub-district Council in Bangladesh though holding legal status as a decentralized local government body disproved the general positive assumptions prevailing in the most of the literatures and theories of decentralization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearly all countries worldwide are now experimenting with decentralization. Their motivation are diverse. Many countries are decentralizing because they believe this can help stimulate economic growth or reduce rural poverty, goals central government interventions have failed to achieve. Some countries see it as a way to strengthen civil society and deepen democracy. Some perceive it as a way to off-load expensive responsibilities onto lower level governments. Thus, decentralization is seen as a solution to many different kinds of problems. This report examines the origins and implications decentralization from a political economy perspective, with a focus on its promise and limitations. It explores why countries have often chosen not to decentralize, even when evidence suggests that doing so would be in the interests of the government. It seeks to explain why since the early 1980s many countries have undertaken some form of decentralization. This report also evaluates the evidence to understand where decentralization has considerable promise and where it does not. It identifies conditions needed for decentralization to succeed. It identifies the ways in which decentralization can promote rural development. And it names the goals which decentralization will probably not help achieve.
