Decentralization in Ecuador offers a new provocative interpretation
in understanding why and how power, as well as resources, are
shifted to local levels of government. The book argues that actors
and their incentives are the driving force for change - legislators
and labor unions, indigenous people and presidents, finance
ministers and regional governors are the real protagonists of the
game of decentralization. It shows why Ecuador's different interest
groups achieved breakthroughs to redistribute resources at
particular moments in time, but failed so remarkably in others,
falling onto the path of "successful failure." As becomes apparent
time and again, ironically it is often the winners of partial
decentralization that provide the greatest obstacle to complete
reform and achieve more beneficial outcomes. Drawing from
first-hand experience with Ecuadorian policymakers,
Decentralization in Ecuador presents conclusions about political
strategies that have important implications for all countries
pursing decentralization. This book should appeal to economists,
political scientists, decision-makers, and all those interested in
developing countries, particularly in Latin American politics or
economics.
