MSGL 807 - Ethical Governance

Institution:

Duquesne University

Subject:

MSGL - Global Leadership

Description:

We have recently witnessed a wave of democratization processes in developing countries where a number of countries have embraced multi-party systems and increased the influence of civil organizations, promoting inclusiveness and broad participation in decision-making. Ethical governance means ensuring transparency and accountability in the affairs of government. Major donors and international financial institutions are increasingly basing their aid and loans on the condition that governments must undertake "good governance". In other words, they should embrace the ideas of participatory, transparent and accountable, effective and equitable governance. They must also promote the rule of law, and must ensure that political, social and economic priorities are based on broad consensus in society. This course will examine core elements of ethical governance and provide ideas on how to address them.
