Good governance has become increasingly central to discussions of economic growth, development, and environmental management. As the world grapples with increasing inequality and environmental degradation, the role of governance in shaping sustainable outcomes has gained critical importance.
Growth, Development and Environmental Implications of Good Governance by Ramesh Chandra Das delves into the complex relationship between governance, economic progress, and environmental management. His work tackles four key questions: how governance indicators are interconnected, whether good governance is a prerequisite for growth and development or the result of it, and its role in environmental management. Drawing on case studies from around the world, Das provides a comprehensive analysis of how governance influences diverse economies. The work’s unique contribution lies in its global approach, comparing governance models across different regions and offering timely insights into how governance failures and successes shape both economic and environmental stability. At a time when global governance faces significant crises, this analysis offers crucial guidance for navigating complex economic and environmental challenges.
Designed for scholars in Economics, Political Economics and Development Economics, etc. policymakers, and practitioners, this study offers valuable insights into how good governance can drive sustainable growth and development across the globe.
