Policy without saying so : the repercussions on city government implicit
in the reforms of the World Bank.
At first glance, the World Bank's actions in favor of development seem sectorial and
technical. On final analysis however, it is clear that they add up to a “vision” of city
government embodied in an intrinsically political language of public action. Particularly
in the 80s, the evolution of the principles guiding its actions led the World Bank to an
interest in institutional reform, and from there to the big metropolises of developing
countries. The resulting model of city government was characterized by a rather complex
institutional configuration, high spending for city services, and a certain unawareness of
questions of power. Contrary to the holistic vision developed at the time, only a political
economy concerned with detail can provide insight into the reality of the situation and
implement efficient reforms. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
