Developing countries commonly adopt reforms to improve their
governments yet they usually fail to produce more functional and
effective governments. Andrews argues that reforms often fail to
make governments better because they are introduced as signals to
gain short-term support. These signals introduce unrealistic best
practices that do not fit developing country contexts and are not
considered relevant by implementing agents. The result is a set of
new forms that do not function. However, there are realistic
solutions emerging from institutional reforms in some developing
countries. Lessons from these experiences suggest that reform
limits, although challenging to adopt, can be overcome by focusing
change on problem solving through an incremental process that
involves multiple agents.
