DEMOCRATIC governance is the range of processes through which a society reaches consensus on and implements regulations, human rights, laws, policies and social structures in pursuit of justice, welfare and environmental protection. Policies and laws are carried out by many institutions: the legislature, judiciary, executive branch, political parties, private sector and a variety of civil society. In this sense DEMOCRATIC governance brings to the fore the question of how a society organizes itself to ensure equality (of opportunity) and equity (social and economic justice) for all citizens. This course examines institutions and processes of DEMOCRATIC governance in developing countries of Asia, Africa, Latin America, Eastern Europe, and the Middle East. It will focus on approaches and innovative solutions to promote and sustain DEMOCRATIC structures and processes for people-centered development.
