Description: Local State Institutional Reforms in Ghana : Actors, Legitimacy and the Unfulfilled Promise of Participatory Development, Paperback by Sabbi, Matthew, ISBN 3848738015, ISBN-13 9783848738014, Brand New, Free shipping in the US This study examines local institutional reforms frequently conceived as a panacea for accountable and responsive local institutions that engender change and prosperity in Ghana. Currently, this assumption is often made without recourse to how policymakers pursue these institutional changes in everyday situations. While the link between local democracy and poverty reduction remains largely rhetorical, it still persists because no clear distinction is made between local political reforms, local autonomy and local socio-economic change. Using an actor-centered institutional framework, this study offers critical insights into how local policymakers take advantage of institutional reforms to advance their own interests at the expense of specific local priorities and socio-economic change.
