Local Politics and Local Economy

Emmanuel de Dios ()

Chapter 6 in The Dynamics of Regional Development, 2007, pp 157-203 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: A decade and a half since the Philippines embarked on a major program of decentralization, the authors of this book have undertaken a detailed examination of all aspects of the nation’s regional dynamics and policies. Their analysis extends to comparable experiences in East Asia, particularly China and Indonesia. The lessons of this book are relevant not only for an audience interested in the Philippines – a large developing nation with a population soon to exceed 100 million people – but also for many other developing countries now embarking on decentralization programs. The book therefore has broad international appeal.
