Audacious Reforms
Johns Hopkins University Press (Verlag)
978-0-8018-6420-9 (ISBN)
Broader theoretical perspectives on the definition of nation and state, the nature of political contests, the legitimacy of political systems and the role of elites all must be considered. While past conflicts are not erased by reforms, in the new order there is often greater potential for more responsible, accountable and democratic government.
Merilee S. Grindle is the Edward S. Mason Professor of International Development at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. She is the author of, among other works, State and Countryside: Development Policy and Agrarian Politics in Latin America and, with John W. Thomas, Public Choices and Policy Change: the Political Economy of Reform in Developing Countries (both available from Johns Hopkins), and Challenging the State: Crisis and Innovation in Latin America and Africa.
