Paperback. Etat : Very Good. 304 pages. Good governance?in which public institutions function responsibly, transparen tly, and accountably?is essential to reducing poverty and stimulating growth. As numerous studies have shown, weak governance translates into slower growth, les s-than-effective public services, and missed opportunities for human development because of the limited participation of citizens in shaping their future. This book seeks to enhance the dialogue on good governance in the Middle East and No rth Africa (MENA) region. To accomplish this goal, it marshals evidence showing that good governance matters, both regionally and globally, and draws on the uni versal values of inclusiveness and accountability to propose an analytical frame work for discussing and measuring governance. While the MENA region's quality of administration is relatively strong, it lags behind in other key measures, nota bly public accountability. The region's legacy of limited public disclosure and transparency has, moreover, hampered the debate on governance. While recognizin g that improving governance is no simple matter, this book challenges the region to formulate and act on national programs that would enhance governance by stre ngthening inclusiveness and accountability mechanisms?and to do so in an open, p articipatory process. Such programs could build on the debate and progress incre asingly evident across the region, and lead to a strategy for better governance that can simultaneously encourage growth and development and meet the needs and aspirations of the region's people in the decades ahead. Award winning title! ' Better Governance' was selected as a 2003 'Notable Government Document' by the A merican Librarian Association (ALA) and GODORT (Government Documents Round Table.
