WWS 572A: Topics in Development - Making Government Work in Fragile States
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
Princeton University
Reformers exist in many fragile states but few are able to produce sustained improvement in service delivery or in the operation of core government institutions. This course focuses on a set of governance traps that appear to subvert fragile state turnarounds and strategies for escaping these. It also addresses handling of principal-agent problems in remote areas. At a broader level, it engages participants in thinking about patterns of state formation in 21st century, focusing on scaling up of reform in urban centers. We use biography and case studies to spur thinking, plus theory drawn from economics and political science.
