O knihe

Script from the year 2013 in the subject Politics - International Politics - Topic: Development Politics, grade: A, Atlantic International University (BUSINESS MANAGEMENT AND ECONOMICS), course: REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT - Development issues, language: English, abstract: Communities need a holistic approach to address problems that
affect the people at the grass root. Planning from the direct
beneficiaries involves decentralization to allow the lower power
centers to widely take part in the development of society. Concerns
of the grass root people form the need for decentralization and of
local governance. People's involvement in planning at various
levels from the village level and all local government units makes
problem identification and problem solving easier. High
participatory levels of all the people especially the marginalized,
encourages innovation to source for the appropriate solutions to the
common problems that face society. It therefore calls a
decentralized system that caters for the voters' preferences while
providing for their services. The concerns of the people call for local
planning , transfer of power to the public so that services are
brought nearer to the people. This research paper will cover the
aspects of local government and decentralization such as good
governance, democratization, civil society, deconcetration,devolution and delegation and how these link to development of
societies.
