Over time it has become clear that capitalism has excluded a larger part of society, leading to worsening development indicators. Cognisant of the limited participation of rural communities in development, Uganda introduced a decentralisation policy in 1992 in a bid to involve more communities in the development process. The policy transferred powers, responsibilities and resources to local governments. By devolving powers to district leaders, it was envisioned that the decentralisation policy would improve service delivery and political accountability. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book analyses the nexus between public expenditure, governance and development outcomes in Uganda. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt presents several case studies in four sectors; agriculture, health, education and roads to demonstrate the interaction of various actors in the management of public expenditure within a political economy conceptual framework. Based on these, the book contends that a mere allocation of public resources without the appropriate functioning of institutions may limit the achievement of the desired development outcomes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e_____________________________________________________________________________\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElijah Dickens Mushemeza\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Professor of Political Science and Development Studies at Ankole Western University and a Senior Consultant at Advocates Coalition for Development and Environment. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGeorge Bogere \u003c\/strong\u003emanages the Centre for Budget and Economic Governance at ACODE, before joining ACODE he worked as a Researcher at Makerere Institute of Social Research (MISR).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSusan Kavuma\u003c\/strong\u003e is a Lecturer in the School of Economics at Makerere University and a Research Fellow at ACODE.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 248\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 9.21 x 6.14 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 25, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42163335757959,"sku":"9781909112810","price":44.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/8a9e4699155aefa883177a2af014d9e7.webp?v=1733296488","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/public-expenditure-governance-in-uganda-inputs-processes-and-outcomes-paperback","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
