| description |
Governance indicators are now widely
used as tools for conducting development dialogue,
allocating external assistance, and influencing foreign
direct investment. This paper argues that available
governance indicators are not suitable for these purposes as
they do not conceptualize governance and fail to capture how
citizens perceive the governance environment and outcomes in
their countries. The paper attempts to fill this void by
conceptualizing governance and implementing a uniform and
consistent framework for measuring governance quality across
countries and over time based on citizens' evaluations.
Using data from the World Values Survey (and other sources)
we implement this framework into practice and build
citizen-centric governance indicators for 120 countries over
the period 1994 to 2005. |
