Mapping Out Governance: The Bangladesh Perspective

"Good governance, at present, is a widely used term. Bangladesh has maintained a steady economic growth rate. This book explores the governance situation in Bangladesh and highlights some of the key strategies to deal with the issues related to governance. The civil society of Bangladesh plays a crucial function in the institutionalization of democracy. Additionally, the NGOs, a key component of civil society, have continued to be enthusiastically involved in the rural community progress programs to enhance the well-being of the vulnerable people in rural areas. Moreover, the book also contains an analysis of Bangladesh''s governance situation from good governance. Good governance is essential in Bangladesh because there is ongoing concern about the state''s authority, the public sector''s failure to meet citizens'' needs and demands, the continuation of corrupt and inefficient public services, and an unfavorable business environment stifling the private sector''s development. Finally, the idea of e-governance is discussed in this book. The advancements in Internet Technology (IT) can enhance service delivery efficiency. To satisfy the growing needs of today''s citizens, the government has come under pressure to become more efficient and transparent. This book, it is hoped, will be helpful for those policymakers, researchers, students, and academics interested in learning about the governance situation in Bangladesh"--
