Bidyut Chakrabarty

Localizing Governance in India (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book analyses local governance structures in India. It traces historical-intellectual trajectories of participatory governance and how older Western discourses have influenced Indian policymakers. The author demonstrates that participatory governance has a long history in India. While colonial rulers devolved power to accommodate dissenting voices, for independent India, participatory governance was a design for democratizing governance in its true sense. Participation also acted as a vehicle for localizing governance.
