A Theory Of Good Governance Or Good Government
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.14738/assrj.58.5054Abstract
The United Nations’ endorsed notion of good government or governance can be analysed in a clear fashion with the concepts of rule of law – rule of law I (legality) and rule of law II (democracy). Principal-agent modelling shows how politicians and the bureaucracy can be restrained by rule of law institutions.
