商品簡介
The concept of "sound governance" proposes editor Farazmand (director, School of Public Administration, Florida Atlantic U.), is superior to "good governance" in that it provides a structure for involving stakeholders and includes dimensions of internal values, constitutional formalism, well-organized institutions, efficient management, citizen participation in policy making, the promotion of self-determination against neo-colonialism of the Western capitalist countries and the global governance systems they largely control. He presents 16 contributions that, within this conceptual framework of sound governance, consider issues of building capacity for administration; innovations in policy, organization and management; application of Total Quality Management; and innovations in development policy and administration.
