This work explores the relationship between government accountability and public participation. It discusses two assumptions: greater accountability leads to better performance; the more the public is involved with measuring government performance, the more it can hold government accountable. The author presents the basics of performance measurement, examines the rationale for and against direct citizen participation, looks at performance-based accountability systems and public participation strategies, and provides in-depth case studies on state and local governments that have implemented performance measurement systems with public input.
