This book is a study of whether setting up democratic local councils in four developing countries (Ghana, Cote d`Ivoire, Bangladesh and India) actually makes any difference to the popularity, responsiveness and effectiveness of local government and administration. The authors make an important contribution to current debates about `good governance` and whether decentralisation can provide better services for the mass of the population - the poor and the disadvantaged in rural areas. The book is comparative, and based on detailed local fieldwork and popular surveys.
