The linchpin of the Bank’s environmental policies is its requirement for an environmental impact assessment (EIA) for all projects that significantly affect the environment. Although EIA has the potential to transform policy making by making it ecologically rational, its ability to do so rests fundamentally on its sensitivity to socio-cultural issues, a major one of which is gender. I undertake a gender evaluation of the Bank’s environmental policies, with a specific focus on its conceptualization of EIA, through an analysis of Bank documents and a case study of the World Bank-financed Sardar Sarovar dam project in India. The analysis reveals that the Bank has failed to acknowledge the gender-specific implications of development in formulating its environmental policies. Gender issues remain at best an add-on to these...","PeriodicalId":333221,"journal":{"name":"The Asian Journal of Public Administration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127052748","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to overcome the legacy of discrimination and neglect, South Africa must above all else create conditions for sustainable growth. In this regard, the government has to externalize its public services and enter into contracts with other service providers. As the taxpayer is paying for the services, it is important that officials should be trained and exposed to different and complex contracts But unfortunately due to the government’s policy of rightsizing and downsizing, many skilled and well trained officials have taken severance packages. This outflow has created a vacuum which could create grounds for corruption, the misappropriation of funds, and the poor monitoring of contracts. Therefore, it is of crucial importance that the capacity of officials in administering and managing contracts be developed.","PeriodicalId":333221,"journal":{"name":"The Asian Journal of Public Administration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130687297","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The research was facilitated by a series of interviews, supported by a contemporary literature review, and is part of a wider project which seeks to construct some comparative models of the role of government in national socio-economic development in Australia, Singapore, Malaysia, China and Vietnam. The overall research has two aims The first is to develop some greater understanding of the role of government in the creation of factors that support national economic performance. The second is to develop some alternative means of measuring national performance in terms that provide a more informative picture than that currently provided by conventional economic and financial reportingThe focal point of the article is the role of the governments of Malaysia and Singapore in the formulation of the national stra...","PeriodicalId":333221,"journal":{"name":"The Asian Journal of Public Administration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115709270","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this context, the argument here is that, despite the spate of bad publicity received by the countries of this region of late, the UNDP could still pick up a thing or two in the formulation of its governance assistance programme from country experiences in this region.

The new SAR government inherited from its colonial predecessor a political and administrative structure characterized by bureaucratic dominance which makes it very difficult for advocacy planning to flourish. A pioneer study was conducted of a sample of professional planners to investigate their role perceptions and performance, and their inclination to adopt advocacy planning. Results reveal that the respondents were ambivalent in their understanding and orientation to advocacy planning. Planners were largely confused about what constitutes the “public interest”. Since they adopted a technocratic role perception and a conservative stance towards planning for social equity, they only recognized superficially the role of citizen participation, and had a rather negative perception of the ability of the territory’s ascending political representatives to participate in planning. They were cautious about the prospects for advocacy planning in Hon...","PeriodicalId":333221,"journal":{"name":"The Asian Journal of Public Administration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114081029","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Changes included corporatising and privatising state owned enterprizes; introducing performance related individual contracts for senior staff; increasing departmental management autonomy; changing financial management and reporting requirements, including moving from input-based to output based reporting; a move to strategic planning for the government; and departmental decoupling, including promoting policy-operations and funder-provider splits. The reforms drew heavily on public choice theory, new institutional economics and new public management. The New Zealand reforms have been promoted by some, such as the OECD and the Auditor General of Canada, as exemplars of public sector reform. This article argues that while there have been efficiency gains from these changes, these have sometimes been oversold The benefits have often been off-set by significant costs.","PeriodicalId":333221,"journal":{"name":"The Asian Journal of Public Administration","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1998-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130828532","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Such a multiple-component definition is much more useful if it can serve not only retrospectively as a framework for performance reporting, but also prospectively and continuously as an information framework for both governance and management control over the cycle of organisational activities. By defining focus and causal integration, the Balanced Scorecard developed for commercial organisations offers one useful way of transforming a multiple-component performance reporting framework into a comprehensive governance and management information framework. The Scorecard can be adapted directly for use in public sector commercial organisations, and, with more creativity - involving the redefinition of focus as the maximisation of effectiveness for a given budget -for public and private non-profit organisations.
