Reviews'Governance has been a leading concept in academic and policy research on politics and development for a quarter century. This Handbook is a befitting marker of its evolution during this period. The editors bring together an impressive range of scholars from across the world to discuss the multiple contexts in which governance has been applied to highlight the ways societies are managed through the interaction between citizens and their public authorities. Specific issues include how governance relates to policymaking, human rights, state formation, and international development cooperation. The book is an invaluable source for researchers, teachers, and students of the complex relations between politics and development.'

SynopsisThis Handbook provides readers with an expert overview of the key theoretical approaches to governance and development, covering a broad range of policy areas and domains. Utilising a critical approach to assess issues from a multidisciplinary perspective, the contributions in this Handbook review different social contexts and policy areas, governance arrangements, and processes relating to issues of development. Chapters illustrate at global, regional and national levels how the specific forms of governance impact development and how ongoing trends of development can influence governance concerns. Further insights are also offered regarding the functioning of the state and the transformation of the role of the state in modern society, illustrating the place for governance in future development policies. Researchers in governance and development will find this comprehensive Handbook an excellent resource for their area of specialisation, and scholars in governance, political science, social sciences and economics will be provided with a useful entry point into the literature. Practitioners will also welcome this as an informative read for updating their knowledge and accessing the latest research findings.
