The past decade has seen a quickening of the pace and extent   of privatisation reforms in developing countries. An associated set of   post-privatisation policies has seen the introduction of new and changed   regulatory institutions. This book critically reviews regulatory reforms in   developing countries, with a particular focus on the strengths and   weaknesses of the `best practice' model of reform, the significance of   institutions of regulatory governance, and the impact of post-privatisation   governance on development and poverty reduction agendas.     The contributors argue that while regulatory governance is regarded as   highly significant in the literature on economic and social regulation in   developed economies, in relation to regulatory reforms in developing   countries, it is a neglected and under researched field. This book aims to   redress the balance. Regulatory Governance in Developing Countries proposes   that existing policy models of regulatory reform are inappropriate,   ineffectual, and too narrowly conceived; they need to be evaluated and   reshaped within the broader context of poverty reduction and developmental   programmes. Drawn from diverse backgrounds, including law, political   science, economics, and development policy and management, the contributors   are well placed to judge issues of policy transfer between developed and   developing systems of governance.      Postgraduate and advanced undergraduate students in governance, public   policy, public sector development studies and economics will find this book   to be of great interest as will practitioners in development agencies and   aid institutions.
