"Good local governance" reflects the dual functions of local
government. On the one hand, democratic regimes gain input
legitimacy by responsiveness and by being inclusive towards the
preferences of their citizens. On the other hand, they achieve
output legitimacy by effectively delivering public goods and
services. Their governance strategies follow three major paths -
"decentralisation," "political administrative reforms" and
"participatory reforms." But national contexts, actors, political
culture and path dependency matter a lot. In this book
continent-wide developments are compared by using relevant country
studies. This comparative approach focuses on "developing
countries" in Asia, Africa and Latin America, comparing and
contrasting their experience with that of European countries
