This study provides a conceptual framework for analysing
Results-Based Approaches to improving public sector effectiveness
and efficiency according to their actor constellation and shared
characteristics. Though the importance of functioning public sector
agencies and organizations for sustainable development is accepted,
public sector reform efforts have achieved only modest success.
Results-Based Approaches aim at improving public sector performance
through the establishment of reward modalities on the domestic and
international levels, and the authors evaluate the potential of
these approaches to provide an entry point for development
cooperation. Applying their framework to empirical data obtained
from fieldwork in Rwanda, they analyse the main domestic
performance approach - Imhigo - and suggest how this might be
strengthened.

This edited volume provides an assessment of an increasingly
fragmented aid system. Development cooperation is fundamentally
changing its character in the wake of global economic and political
transformations and an ongoing debate about what constitutes, and
how best to achieve, global development. This also has important
implications for the setup of the aid architecture. The increasing
number of donors and other actors as well as goals and instruments
has created an environment that is increasingly difficult to
manoeuvre. Critics describe today's aid architecture as
'fragmented': inefficient, overly complex and rigid in adapting to
the dynamic landscape of international cooperation. By analysing
the actions of donors and new development actors, this book gives
important insights into how and why the aid architecture has moved
in this direction. The contributors also discuss the associated
costs, but also potential benefits of a diverse aid system, and
provide some concrete options for the way forward.
This open access handbook analyses the role of development
cooperation in achieving the 2030 Agenda in a global context of
'contested cooperation'. Development actors, including governments
providing aid or South-South Cooperation, developing countries, and
non-governmental actors (civil society, philanthropy, and
businesses) constantly challenge underlying narratives and norms of
development. The book explores how reconciling these differences
fosters achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals.
