Institutional Incentives And Sustainable Development: Infrastructure Policies In Perspective (Theoretical Lenses on Public Policy) - Tapa dura

Building on the award-winning "Governing the Commons", this book shows how incentives and institutional arrangements can help or hinder development efforts. Using case studies from a variety of infrastructure projects, including roads, bridges and irrigation, in a wide range of geographical settings from Africa and Asia to South America and beyond, the authors provide criteria for evaluating individual and institutional performance in centralized, decentralized and polycentric institutional contexts.
