This handbook examines 25 years of decentralised governance and
development in India. It provides a historical overview of
developments since the introduction of decentralisation reforms
(73rd and 74th Constitutional Amendment Acts) and critically
assesses the measures initiated to strengthen decentralised
institutions and deepen grassroots democracy. It also discusses the
status of service delivery and identifies the issues and challenges
involved in achieving development at the local level. The volume
studies themes such as the devolution of powers in India,
administrative and fiscal decentralisation, decentralised planning,
Panchayats in scheduled areas, the sociological aspects of
decentralisation, caste, gender and local democracy, capacity
building, ICT for local governance, urban local governance,
workfare and decentralisation, and decentralised natural resource
management. It also looks at Panchayati Raj institutions from a
Gandhian perspective. The first of its kind, this handbook will be
an essential read for scholars and researchers of decentralisation
and development, development studies, fiscal decentralisation,
political studies, political sociology, Indian politics, Indian
government, public policy and governance, political economy, South
Asian studies, and South Asian politics.
