Rapid urbanization in developing countries is placing increasing strains on the financial capacity of governments to provide
the urban services and infrastructure that will be needed to promote sustainable economic growth. The growing complexity of
urban systems in developing countries and the financial constraints on central government agencies are pressuring governments
to decentralize a wider range of responsibilities for financing and providing public services in urban areas. Experiments
with five approaches to local finance in many developing countries have focused more on revenue generation than on strengthening
the administrative capacity of local governments to manage new responsibilities. The success of decentralization and of local
revenue generation in the future, however, will depend on strengthening the ability of local governments to manage revenues
and expenditures more efficiently and to maintain urban services more effectively.

Decentralization in development planning and administration is being attempted in novel ways as governments seek to generate economic growth and at the same time achieve greater social equity. Little has been done to assess comparatively the nature and effectiveness of these experiments. This article is based on a selection of eight case studies, each set in a different Asian country, where an innovative approach to decentralization has been adopted by the central government in order to achieve development aims. The stimulus to innovate is considered, the different forms of decentralization compared and a tentative comparative evaluation is made of the effectiveness of decentralizing development planning and implementation. What the analysis shows is that despite diversity in the objectives and differences in the forms decentralized programmes took there were common problems centring on administrative capability. This, the author argues, has important implications for governments and international agencies. 相似文献
