Der Autor untersucht in seinem Beitrag den Zusammenhang zwischen der institutionellen Struktur von politischen Systemen und der Qualität von Governance, die in einer demokratischen Regierung, z. B. in Präsidialsystemen und im Parlamentarismus zu beobachten ist. Er bezieht sich bei seiner Analyse der Korruptionsursachen in verschiedenen politischen Systemen auf die Theorie des soziologischen Neo-Institutionalismus, demzufolge Institutionen das Akteursverhalten beeinflussen. Er verweist unter anderem auf die Forschungsarbeiten von James G. March und Johan P. Olsen, die versucht haben, den Einfluss von Institutionen auf korruptes Verhalten herauszuarbeiten. Ein korruptes Verhalten tritt demzufolge dann auf, wenn sich entweder die zuvor bestandene Sinngebungsfunktion der Institution ändert und in einer aggregativen Institution eine individualistische Nutzenmaximierung proklamiert wird, oder wenn sie diese Sinngebungsfunktion gänzlich verliert und dadurch Orientierungslosigkeit und Unsicherheit entstehen. Einige Versuche, die Effizienz von Regierungssystemen und die Qualität der Demokratie durch "Good Governance" zu fördern, können nach den Analysen des Autors paradoxerweise auch unintendierte Folgen haben, indem sie mehr Gelegenheiten für Korruption schaffen.

The post 9/11 meaning of the term globalization is argued to need to be cast far more broadly to consider the relevance of the reconfiguration of conflict on the global level, & to suggest how the quest for a new framework of regulatory authority has changed from the 1990s. The author asserts the central contention that, although globalization retains its relevance as a descriptive level, it is the economist at interpretation since the events of 2001 that needs to be altered. A brief review of the evolution of world politics after the Cold War sets the stage for the extended view of globalization as an incorporation of the new geopolitics of post-statist political conflict. The contested & fluid contours & ideological orientation of globalization & governance are placed in five overlapping approaches to governance globalizations of corporate, civic, imperial, apocalyptic, & regional are identified as the structural alternatives for the future of world order. Although maintaining the descriptive terminology of globalization remains useful, the author concludes that its provenance should be enlarged to take account of globalizing tendencies other than those associated with the world economy & the old anti-globalization movement in the environment of the eclipsing of the whole project of global governance in recent years.

This edited collection of essays studies the national experiences of six Western European countries through a number of concrete types of challenges to governance -- ie, the steel industry, health care, finance, & HIV & blood supply -- to determine why some public management policies succeed & others fail. The volume also aims to examine several key issues of public governance, eg, (1) the degree of legitimacy in governance within Western Europe in light of higher expectations from citizens & greater media criticism & (2) success & failure in governance. It also provides a comparative analysis of empirical research of the current beliefs that due to market globalization, individualization, informationization, & Europeanization, governments have lost their ability to govern autonomously. An understanding of the similarities & differences in the natures & results of policy measures to similar problems across countries allows a more systematic study of national policy styles, the influence of EU policy making, & the possibilities of uniting policy styles.
