Chapter 7 in Privatization and Development, 1997, pp 179-210 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Chapter 5 concluded with the statement that development may mean decentralization and the latter certainly does mean participation, but privatization does not invariably lead to participation. It depends on how it is designed and implemented. This chapter will study this argument within the context of decentralization and participation, and hence development in Jordan. However, as there is no actual experience of privatization, the conclusions will be hypothetical, except for that of leasing state lands.
