The Decentralization DelusionChallenging the Underlying Assumptions of Development\nAuthor(s): Ruby Dagher, Nana Afia Aku Ofori-Yentumi\nFormat: Paperback\nPublisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd, United Kingdom\nImprint: Routledge\nISBN-13: 9781041271598, 978-1041271598\nSynopsis\nThe Decentralization Delusion challenges the narrative that decentralization leads to enhanced democratic practices and higher levels of economic and social development.\n\nInstead, the book argues that decentralization theory tends to rely on assumptions which are idealistic and mostly inappropriate to non-Western contexts. Diving into over 50 case studies from around the globe, the book extensively assesses the intended and unintended outcomes of different types and levels of decentralization. By juxtaposing the ideals of decentralization against the challenges of real-world implementation, the book lays the foundations for understanding what the prerequisites for success are and what the shortfalls can be. .
