In Botswana, regulation is highly state centred, largely mimics competition, engenders multiple accountability measures, and emphasises consensus more than punishment. The result is a very, complex, often confusing policy environment. There is more interdependence between government, regulators and industry, as policy resources like finance, formal-legal authority, information, technical know-how, and political connections are fragmented between government and industry. Academics, industry professionals, students of government, the economy, law and business will all find this a very useful volume to understanding an increasingly important approach to managing Botswana’s public policy. | | Copyright Holder | Botswana Institute for Development Policy Analysis (BIDPA) | | Copyright URL | http://www.bidpa.bw | | ISBN/ISSN | 9789991271491 | | Filesize | 2041257 MB | | File Format | PDF | | [ View / download original document ] |
