The Political Economy of Democratic Decentralization
ISBN: 9780821344705 / Angielski / Miękka / 1999 / 144 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Advocates of pluralist, competitive politics have regarded decentralization as a device for deepening democracy or for prying closed systems open and to give interest groups space in which to organize, compete and otherwise assert themselves.

It is based mainly on...

India's National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA), passed in 2005, has been among the developing world's most ambitious anti-poverty initiatives.

This book is not a technical evaluation of programme performance. It offers instead a detailed analysis of the politics surrounding NREGA: the model of political action that motivated its architects, the public advocacy and parliamentary maneuvering involved in its...

Against the Odds: Politicians, Institutions and the Struggle Against Poverty
ISBN: 9780199327454 / Angielski / Twarda / 2012 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych.

The three--former President Fernando Henrique Cardoso of Brazil, President Yoweri Museveni of Uganda, and Chief Minister Digvijay Singh in the Indian state of Madhya Pradesh--had scarcely heard of one another, and never communicated. And yet they used a broadly similar repertoire of political devices - persuasion, distractions, bargaining, stealth and pressure - to pursue broadly similar...
