Download or read book Politics, Governance, and Development in Ghana written by Joseph R.A. Ayee and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-10-16 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since it achieved independence in 1957, the West African state of Ghana has become the torchbearer of African liberation, as well as a laboratory for the study of endemic problems facing the African continent. In terms of democratic consolidation, the country holds a unique position on the continent as beacon of stability and democracy. Politics, Governance, and Development in Ghana takes critical stock of the landmark themes that have dominated its history since independence. The contributors address issues such as citizenship, civil society, the military, politicians, chiefs, transnational actors, the public sector and policies, the executive branch, decentralization, the economy, electoral politics, natural resources, and relations with Asia and the diaspora. These themes support “mobilizing for Ghana’s future,” which is the theme for the diamond jubilee celebration of Ghana’s independence. Edited by Joseph R.A. Ayee, this book will deepen the literature on studies on Ghana especially in the areas of politics, governance, economy and development; serve as a resource for academics, students, practitioners; and commemorate the diamond jubilee celebration of Ghana’s independence.

Download or read book Public Administration and Policy Making in Ghana written by Nii Tackie and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A concise book on public administration and public policy for Ghana is lacking in the literature, and hence, the the attempt to write this seminal book to fill the gap. The book defines public administration and ties it to the Constitution and the executive branch. It also emphasizes the history and reforms of the civil service. It devotes time to the judiciary and its role; it, furthermore, focuses some time on the policy process and the legislature. Finally, an attempt is made to tie all the "pieces" together. This book is written for those interested in public administration and public policy in Ghana in particular and all others who are interested in the field of public administration and public policy in general. The principles and issues expressed in the book can be applied to many areas of public administration and public policy and are not restrictive. The book is intentionally written in an easy-to-understand format and language. The intention is to give a very broad and introductory overview of the workings of public administration and public policy, particularly using as an example a young and upcoming country on the move.

This book was released on 2017-11-16 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understanding the Policymaking Process in Developing Countries provides a uniquely comprehensive and practical framework for development practitioners, policymakers, activists, and students to diagnose and improve policy processes in developing countries across a wide range of issues. Based on the classic policy sciences approach, the book offers over 100 diagnostic indicators keyed to identify problems of policy processes, policy content, bureaucratic behavior, stakeholder behavior, and national-subnational interactions. This multi-disciplinary framework is applied to a host of policy problems that particularly plague countries experiencing the 'under-development syndrome', including aborted programs and projects, policy impasses, distorted implementation, unnecessary harm and conflict, and shortsighted initiatives. These points are illustrated through cases from Africa, Asia, and Latin America. Based on the developing countries' distinctive challenges, the book also offers recommendations on improving policy content and institutions to address the typical limitations.

Download or read book Handbook of Policy Formulation written by Michael Howlett and published by Edward Elgar Publishing. This book was released on 2017-04-28 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Policy formulation relies upon the interplay of knowledge-based analysis of issues with power-based considerations, such as the political assessment of the costs and benefits of proposed actions, and its effects on the partisan and electoral concerns of governments. Policy scholars have long been interested in how governments successfully create, deploy and utilise policy instruments, but the literature on policy formulation has, until now, remained fragmented. This comprehensive Handbook unites original scholarship on policy tools and design, with contributions examining policy actors and the roles they play in the formulation process.

Download or read book Theory and Practice in Policy Analysis written by M. Granger Morgan and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-10-12 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many books instruct readers on how to use the tools of policy analysis. This book is different. Its primary focus is on helping readers to look critically at the strengths, limitations, and the underlying assumptions analysts make when they use standard tools or problem framings. Using examples, many of which involve issues in science and technology, the book exposes readers to some of the critical issues of taste, professional responsibility, ethics, and values that are associated with policy analysis and research. Topics covered include policy problems formulated in terms of utility maximization such as benefit-cost, decision, and multi-attribute analysis, issues in the valuation of intangibles, uncertainty in policy analysis, selected topics in risk analysis and communication, limitations and alternatives to the paradigm of utility maximization, issues in behavioral decision theory, issues related to organizations and multiple agents, and selected topics in policy advice and policy analysis for government.
