Decentralization is at the center of policy reform agenda worldwide. Today, more than ever, countries are actively engaged in developing decentralization programs to make their public administration more effective, flexible, and responsive. In 2000, the World Bank estimated that between 80-100% of the world's countries were experimenting with some form of decentralization of governance system. This book presents the work done on decentralization—keeping tribal local self-governance at the center of analysis—by compiling the work of researchers, policymakers, and experts who are well-versed in the domain of tribal welfare and understand its nuances. Their research would inevitably help develop policy-level interventions and reforms to strengthen the foundation of tribal local self-governance and consequently help achieve sustainable development for the tribal communities.

Nearly all countries worldwide are now experimenting with decentralization. Their motivation are diverse. Many countries are decentralizing because they believe this can help stimulate economic growth or reduce rural poverty, goals central government interventions have failed to achieve. Some countries see it as a way to strengthen civil society and deepen democracy. Some perceive it as a way to off-load expensive responsibilities onto lower level governments. Thus, decentralization is seen as a solution to many different kinds of problems. This report examines the origins and implications decentralization from a political economy perspective, with a focus on its promise and limitations. It explores why countries have often chosen not to decentralize, even when evidence suggests that doing so would be in the interests of the government. It seeks to explain why since the early 1980s many countries have undertaken some form of decentralization. This report also evaluates the evidence to understand where decentralization has considerable promise and where it does not. It identifies conditions needed for decentralization to succeed. It identifies the ways in which decentralization can promote rural development. And it names the goals which decentralization will probably not help achieve.

"This volume addresses the contentious and topical issue of aboriginal self-government over child welfare. Using case studies from Australia and Canada, it discusses aboriginal child welfare in historical and comparative perspectives and critically examines recent legal reforms and changes in the design, management and delivery of child welfare services aimed at securing the 'decolonization' of aboriginal children and families. Within this context, the author identifies the limitations of reconciling the conflicting demands of self-determination and sovereignty and suggests that international law can provide more nuanced and culturally sensitive solutions. Referring to the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, and the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, it is argued that the effective decolonization of aboriginal child welfare requires a journey well beyond the single issue of child welfare to the heart of the debate over self-government, self-determination and sovereignty in both national and international law."--pub. desc.

This book argues that the promulgation of the Traditional Leadership and Governance Framework and Communal Land Rights Acts runs the risk of compromising South Africa's democracy. The acts establish traditional councils with land administration powers. These structures are dominated by unelected members.

This book is a study of how some of the world's leading democratic states have responded to the challenge of territorial or sub-national movements seeking to increase the salience of cultural differences--ethnic, linguistic, and regional identity--on the national agenda. International experts explore the various ways that cultural differences have acquired political significance and how these are managed by democratic states in every region of the world.

China’s emergence in Africa is the most significant development for the continent since at least the end of the Cold War. Of the permanent members of the UN Security Council, China is also the largest contributor in terms of troop numbers to United Nations Peacekeeping Operations (UNPKO). While China’s potential to be a force for change in Africa is undeniable, there are wildly varied and sometimes unrealistic expectations in both the West and Africa of China’s role in Africa. A more detailed and nuanced understanding of Chinese motivations in its African engagement is necessary, in order to work effectively with China for African peace, security and development. With Liberia, Darfur and South Sudan as case studies, Kuo comprehensively examines the "Chinese peace" and places it within the context of the liberal peace debate. He does so using primary sources translated from the original Chinese, as well as interviews conducted in Mandarin with Chinese policymakers, academics, diplomats as well as Chinese company managers and businessmen working in Liberia and South Sudan. He also traces and analyses the Chinese discourse of peace, from traditional Chinese political philosophy, through Mao Zedong and Deng Xiaoping to post-reform and the Xi Jinping era.

People's Planning Campaign (PPC) was an innovative decentralised planning exercise experimented by the Left Democratic Government in Kerala (1996-2001) for deepening local governance. PPC conceptualised poverty in relation to a host of inequalities such as economic dispossession and political marginalisation in contrast to technocratic and neoliberal prescriptions. Rather than placing faith in either the rational and comprehensive decision-making or incremental institution building championed by public administration and managerial sciences, PPC relied on local experiences emerged through reflexive reasoning and dialectical engagements with citizens. This volume analyses two critical components of the PPC-Women Component Plan (WCP) and Tribal Sub Plan (TSP)- designed to empower the most marginalised citizens in Kerala: women and the Scheduled Tribes. Through detailed examination of the processes of mobilisation, conscientisation, and citizenship targeting these groups, the book assesses the possibilities and limitations of planning processes devised to politicise and redress the grievances of the dispossessed. In doing so, the analysis contrast the depth of participation, the nature and quality of deliberative processes, and the substantive outcomes of participation for these two marginalised groups, along with a detailed analysis of the reasons for the ineffective media strategies of the PPC and their dysfunctional interventions that failed in countering the hegemonic social and political power structures.
