• W2166476489 abstract "This paper attempts to tie the various strands of literature together to ascertain the main drivers of local performance and accountability. It explores accountability and performance in the context of a whole range of factors, such as enabling environment of national regulations; donor projects; ability of councilors' to mobilize government; powers and skills of councilors'; their ideologies; fear of sanctions; cultural norms and values. It also examines in greater depth the main arguments that have been advanced regarding the tension between accountability and performance or efficiency. While some of the drivers of local performance discussed in this review, such as fiscal decentralization, have already received extensive treatment in the literature on local performance, others, such as party systems and neighborhood factors, have been subject to less empirical treatment. The paper has three main sections. Section one is a survey of the literature on key factors that shape local government performance. In particular, in the sub-sections, the following factors are highlighted: (1) democracy and rule of law; (2) voice through elections and oversight; (3) socioeconomic development; (4) political culture and tradition; (5) corruption; (6) ethnic diversity and fragmentation; (7) role of national and local party systems and politics; (8) appropriate policy sphere to decentralize; (9) fiscal decentralization and access to capital markets; (10) the structure of local government and lines of accountability; (11) size of the local government unit; (12) outsourcing; (13) leadership skills; (14) role of broader geographic factors and impact of donors. In each of the sub-sections key or representative studies are cited, and the merits or weaknesses of their methodological approaches and interpretations, as well as data needs and limitations, are discussed. Where appropriate, best practice cases are also discussed. Section two critically assesses in more detail the main methodological approaches that have been employed for measuring and evaluating performance, such as public opinion customer satisfaction-type surveys, interviews with key local respondents, and small- and large-n studies using indicators of local outputs and outcomes. The discussion in the third section summarizes the key patterns regarding the drivers of local performance that emerge from the literature review, and, based on it, comes up with a list of hypotheses and research questions." @default.
