This book was released on 2014-01-08 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a nation ‘freed without freedom, led without leaders, governed without governance, and justice is just-them;’ Dr. William Kpanah Gowah Barnes, a distinguished Liberian educator, expert of governance, former executive of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), and a victim of injustices, presents an unambiguous analysis of public administration in Liberia, while contemporaneously dissecting governance and government issues. Indeed, when the folks who have been entrusted to administer the affairs of nation or people—administratively, socially, economically and politically—fall short of living in accordance with the standards demanded of others, such system is certain of collapse; the resulting sums are acute corruption, nepotism, kinship, autocratic ideologies, mayhems, etc.; an eon of superficial freedom, where slavery takes an outlandish twist, vices favored by the great-ones will be termed, ‘good governance…’ Named by the Independent Press of Liberia as “Liberia’s first governance book—highly audacious, provocative and historic,” The Flipside of Governance is a non-fiction public administration book that is designed to be used by professionals everywhere. In the words of the notable rights activist, Jesse Jackson, “This book is definitely one of the best resource materials for public administration in West Africa, in the sense that it draws on experiences and, extensively utilizes scholarly references; it is also a book for the rest of us everywhere—academia, politics, leadership, management, public administration, education, law, theology, etc.” However, if you are not curious about what goes on behind the curtain—the darkest closets of public administration, you may not need this book. It goes into detail about obscure things you may never need to know. From the workings of public administration, to public management strategies and theories, to the fallacies of government, governance and the nation, the author has something to offer for those rare, troubling moments when you are caught between the scissors—thinking, reflecting on how to improve your workforce and societies, or making your professional life a bit easier and rewarding. For example, this book will help you create a “people-centered” labor force, minimize delay, circumvent waste, and avoid single point of policy failure. It will also teach you how to let go the bad patterns of governance, while keeping the good ones. Many of the chapters are provided with illustrations and empirical data. It is the fervent hope of the author that the publication of this book will enhance the spread of ideas and understanding of ‘good governance’ in Liberia, Africa, and the world, at large—those who are currently trickling into the state of academic delusion—public officials who may have forgotten the ethics of public service, the author brings forth recommendations and answers you need…

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although international development discourse considers the state as a crucial development actor, there remains a significant discrepancy between the official norms of the state and public services and the actual practices of political elites and civil servants. This text interrogates the variety of ways in which state policies and legal norms have been translated into the set of practical norms which make up real governance in sub-Saharan Africa. It argues that the concept of practical norms is an appropriate tool for an ethnographic investigation of public bureaucracies, interactions between civil servants and users, and the daily functioning of the state in Africa. It demonstrates that practical norms are usually different from official norms, complementing, bypassing and even contradicting them. In addition, it explores the positive and negative effects of different aspects of this ‘real governance’. This text will be of key interest to academics, students and researchers in the fields of development, political science, anthropology and development studies, African studies, international comparative studies, implementation studies, and public policy.

This book was released on 2017-06-26 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most African economies range from moderately advanced capitalist systems with modern banks and stock markets to peasant and pastoral subsistent systems. Most African countries are also characterized by parallel institutions of governance – one is the state sanctioned (formal) system and the other is the traditional system, which is adhered to, primarily but not exclusively, by the segments of the population in the subsistence peasant and pastoral economic systems. Traditional Institutions in Contemporary African Governance examines critical issues that are largely neglected in the literature, including why traditional institutions have remained entrenched, what the socioeconomic implications of fragmented institutional systems are, and whether they facilitate or impede democratization. The contributors investigate the organizational structure of traditional leadership, the level of adherence of the traditional systems, how dispute resolution, decision-making, and resource allocation are conducted in the traditional system, gender relations in the traditional system, and how the traditional institutions interact with the formal institutions. Filling a conspicuous gap in the literature on African governance, this book will be of great interest to policy makers as well as students and scholars of African politics, political economy and democratization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suburbanization is often blamed for a loss of civic engagement in contemporary America. How justified is this claim? Just what is a suburb? How do social environments shape civic life? Looking beyond popular stereotypes, Democracy in Suburbia answers these questions by examining how suburbs influence citizen participation in community and public affairs. Eric Oliver offers a rich, engaging account of what suburbia means for American democracy and, in doing so, speaks to the heart of widespread debate on the health of our civil society. Applying an innovative, unusually rigorous mode of statistical analysis to a wealth of unique survey and census data, Oliver argues that suburbs, by institutionalizing class and racial differences with municipal boundaries, transform social conflicts between citizens into ones between political institutions. In reducing the incentives for individual political participation, suburbanization has negated the benefits of ''small town'' government and deprived metropolitan areas of valuable civic capacity. This ultimately increases prospects of serious social conflict. Oliver concludes that we must reconfigure suburban governments to allow seemingly intractable issues of common metropolitan concern to surface in local politics rather than be ignored as cross-jurisdictional. And he believes this is possible without sacrifice of local government's advantages. Scholars and students of political science, sociology, and urban affairs will prize this book for its striking findings, its revealing scrutiny of the commonplace, and its insights into how the pursuit of the American dream may be imperiling American democracy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rise of Artificial Intelligence applications is accelerating the pace and magnitude of the political, securitarian, and ethical challenges we are now struggling to manage in cyberspace and beyond. So far, the relationship between Artificial Intelligence and cyberspace has been investigated mostly in terms of the effects that AI could have on the digital domain, and thus on our societies. What has been explored less is the opposite relationship, namely, how the cyberspace geopolitics can affect AI. Yet, AI applications have so far suffered from growing unrest, disorder, and lack of normative solutions in cyberspace. As such, from algorithm biases, to surveillance and offensive applications, AI could accelerate multiple growing threats and challenges in and through cyberspace. This report by ISPI and The Brookings Institution is an effort to shed light on this less studied, but extremely relevant, relationship.

Its central focus is on public school boards, but the governing model it introduces, Coherent Governance , is applicable to any board of any type. The model offers a process for boards to control operational decisions without making them, allowing them to spend the dominant part of their time on what matters.
