Summary |
"The term 'governance' is now widely used. But to what does it refer? How does governance differ from government? What do we mean when we speak of it being either 'good' or 'bad'? Governance can refer to all processes of governing, whether by a ruling power, a market, a network, a family, or a tribe. In this [book] Mark Bevir considers not only the main theories of governance, but also their relation to forms of social coordination and patterns of rule, and their impact on corporate, public, and global affairs." -- publisher description. |
