Edition Summary:
The quality of democracy
In the pursuit of poverty eradication, quality of governance is now widely accepted as a critical factor. The post-2005 global agenda for action against poverty has re-energised the governance debate, especially in the context of the Millennium Development Goals.
What measures can the international community take to address the “governance gap”? How can civil society actors secure the space to exercise their right – and duty – to monitor and engage with the state for better governance? And does improved transparency and accountability make life better for the poor? This Global Future edition picks up these and other key questions.
