This book questions the belief that patronage explains poor
governance and weak organizations. Its focus is on high-level
political appointees in the Philippines, but its implications for
development processes and policy are far-reaching. Patronage
stimulates the emergence of democracy and welfare, and constitutes
formal organizations. So intimately connected is it with the health
of democracy and effective organizations that attempts to eradicate
patronage only harm social, organizational and democratic life. In
developed societies this has meant a growing Puritanism
interspersed with bouts of corruption and moral panic; and, as they
seek to maintain effective organizations and vibrant democracies, a
mounting desire to project their own anxieties and imperfections
onto developing countries.
