Governance, Development and Growth critically evaluates conventional ideas about governance and development , highlighting that while good governance is a worthy goal by itself, it is not a prerequisite for economic growth or development as the donor community commonly believes. |
| Synopsis: |
While good governance is a worthy goal by itself, it is nota prerequisite for economic growth or development. This volume challenges theconventional good governance paradigm favoured by the donor community. Itexposes the methodological shortcomings of the commonly used governanceindicators developed within the World Bank. It highlights the conceptuallimitations or lack of clarity of good governance and debunks the central plankof the good governance hypothesis that good governance causes economic growth.The volume demonstrates that good governance can mean many things, andcountries possessing features of good governance can be different bothstructurally and institutionally. Countries that are developed now did not havethe ideal features of good governance - these features evolved with economicgrowth. |
