摘要

本研究挑战了采购法的不可执行性是尼日利亚基础设施发展的祸根的论点。文章以水、环境卫生和个人卫生(WASH)部门为重点，认为各种采购监管尝试实际上是扩大服务提供部门资本积累的举措。身居高位的个人利用最低反应性招标机制从事破坏该国讲卫生部门发展的尖锐做法。鉴于目前的情况是国家、其机构和法律- -包括采购立法- -是占主导地位的社会力量手中的工具，对规则执行的任何投资和尝试往往只能产生最小的结果。

Public procurement law, political economy of the lowest responsive bidding, and the development of the water, sanitation and hygiene sector in Nigeria

ABSTRACT This study challenges the argument that the non-enforceability of the procurement law is the bane of infrastructural development in Nigeria. Focusing on the water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) sector, the article argues that various attempts at procurement regulation were in fact moves to expand capital accumulation in the service delivery sector. Highly placed individuals leverage the lowest responsive bidding mechanism to engage in sharp practices which undermine the development of the WASH sector in the country. Given the prevailing scenario which presents the state, its institutions and laws – including the procurement legislation – as instruments in the hands of the dominant social forces, any investments in and attempts at rule enforcement tend to produce only minimal outcomes.

期刊介绍： The Review of African Political Economy (ROAPE) is a refereed journal committed to encouraging high quality research and fostering excellence in the understanding of African political economy. Published quarterly by Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group for the ROAPE international collective it has since 1974 provided radical analysis of trends and issues in Africa. It has paid particular attention to the political economy of inequality, exploitation and oppression, whether driven by global forces or local ones (such as class, race, community and gender), and to materialist interpretations of change in Africa. It has sustained a critical analysis of the nature of power and the state in Africa.
