Why do some democratic governments succeed and others fail? In a
book that has received attention from policymakers and civic
activists in America and around the world, Robert Putnam and his
collaborators offer empirical evidence for the importance of "civic
community" in developing successful institutions. Their focus is on
a unique experiment begun in 1970 when Italy created new
governments for each of its regions. After spending two decades
analyzing the efficacy of these governments in such fields as
agriculture, housing, and health services, they reveal patterns of
associationism, trust, and co-operation that facilitate good
governance and economic prosperity. Winner of the 1992 Louis
Brownlow Book Award of the National Academy of Public
Administration.
