The Government Reinvention Movement
1. Many political leaders and government officials know that doing things
the “old way” no longer meets the demands of a more complex and interconnected
international economy or the expectations of a more globally-linked and politically
aware citizenry. Globalization has brought stronger competition among businesses
and pressures on governments to create economic, political and social conditions
within which the private sector can compete more effectively and in which people
can develop their human resources to benefit from participation in productive
activities.
2. Over the past quarter of a century international organizations and
progressive political leaders have called for government reinvention. Even the
most ardent critics of big government now recognize that the State will continue to
be an important political institution that can for good or ill influence the welfare of
millions of people. The challenge for political and administrative leaders in all
countries is to redefine the roles of government and to build the capacity of public
and private institutions to play beneficial roles in helping citizens to cope with the
uncertainties, and benefit from the opportunities, of globalization.
3. The need to improve governance and public administration and to
enhance the State’s capacity to carry out new functions and roles is now widely
recognized. The United Nations Millennium Declaration calls for respect for
human rights and the promotion of democracy and good governance (including
efficient and effective public administration). Good governance is a necessary
condition for the achievement of each of the Millennium Development Goals
(MDGs) – eradicating extreme poverty and hunger; achieving universal primary
education and promoting global partnership for development.

3. What does the United Nations Millennium Declaration call for?

The Millennium Development Goals
1. In an interrelated global society, governments must take on new roles in

creating and sustaining viable economies, reducing poverty, and raising standards
of living. These roles and functions can all contribute to achieving the equitable,
sustainable, and participative economic and social development reflected in the
United Nations’ Millennium Development Goals and in other international
declarations of human aspirations. The United Nations Millennium Declaration
calls for states and international organizations to promote freedom, equality,
solidarity, tolerance, respect for nature, and shared responsibility in working
towards these goals.
2. Although governments have a crucial role in achieving sustainable human
development and reducing poverty, they cannot achieve these goals alone.
Effective governance in a global society implies cooperation or partnerships in
which national governments work collaboratively with lower levels of public
administration, the private sector, organizations of civil society, other states, and
international organizations through democratic, transparent, and participative
processes.
3. In the 21st century, there are important roles through which governments can
contribute to achieving sustainable economic and social development. The most
crucial of these roles is developing institutional capacity because this creates the
context and the foundation for all of the others. Without strong institutions neither
government nor the private sector can stimulate economic growth or social
progress. A second important role is enacting and implementing policies that create
an enabling environment for effective participation in a globalizing economy.

2. What is effective governance in a global society?
3. What are important roles through which governments can contribute to
achieving sustainable economic and social development?

What is Good Governance?
1. In order to achieve socially equitable economic growth, especially in the

poorest developing countries, the government must focus on pro-poor policies that
combat poverty and enhance the people to participate more effectively in
productive activities. Government has a crucial role in strengthening the capacity
of public administration to promote socially equitable economic growth, enable
participation in the global economy and combat poverty.
2. The United Nations has taken a leading role in re-conceptualizing
governance. In the UN’s paradigm, governance is defined as “the exercise of
political, economic and administrative authority to manage a nation’s affairs. It is
the complex mechanisms, processes, relationships and institutions through which
citizens and groups exercise their rights and obligations and mediate their
differences.” In this framework, the State is only one of the institutions through
which authority is exercised. The private sector and civil society organizations play
important roles in helping citizens articulate their interests and exercise their rights.
3. As the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has defined
good governance, its characteristics include widespread participation by all
citizens, transparency in the actions of governance institutions, responsiveness to
the needs and desires of citizens, effectiveness and efficiency in the use of public
resources and the exercise of strategic vision in planning for development.
Underlying the United Nations’ conception of good governance is the need for
governments to reinvent themselves in order to conform to the basic characteristics
of good governance and to enhance their capacity to work effectively with other
governance institutions in the private sector and civil society organization.

Where do Innovations in Government Come from?
1. If governments must reinvent themselves in order to satisfy citizens’

demands and meet the challenges of globalization through innovation, what do
these concepts mean and how are they applied in public administration?
Innovations introduce new ideas or ways of doing things that strongly depart from
convention or that require new or unfamiliar forms of behavior and interaction.
Few innovations in government are pure invention; they are more often discoveries
combining ideas that have been tried elsewhere, recast to meet new circumstances.
Changes bringing about higher quality services or improvements in government
agency performance are one form of innovation.
2. Where do innovations in government come from? Most often,
innovations are motivated by dissatisfaction with existing conditions or
conventions. They are sometimes demanded by groups outside of government –
special interest groups, political parties, organized groups of citizens, or
international organizations. Often, innovations result from performance gaps – that
is, from disjunctions between public expectations and institutional performance.
The recognition that conventional policies or programmes are no longer achieving
their objectives can inspire innovative changes.
3. Other innovations are advocated by political or non-governmental
leaders with “strategic notions.” Strategic notions are strongly held beliefs by
influential people about how situations can be improved through drastic changes in
policy. Innovations sometimes emerge from the strategic vision of political leaders
and set a whole new direction and agenda for government. Changes in external
economic, political, social, or technological conditions often generate ideas that
become innovations. Crises, emergencies or threats to the survival of a government
or other important social or economic institution sometimes force leaders to seek
new ways of dealing with problems or opportunities.

I. Read and translate the text. Write down your translation of the second
paragraph.
Government in the USA
1. Government in the United States includes not only the federal government
in Washington, D.C., but also the governments of the 50 American states and the
30,000 governments in cities and other local communities (to say nothing of the
governments of the 3,043 counties and nearly 50,000 school and other special
districts). Given this vast number of governments—over 87,000 in total—it is not
surprising that they are characterized more by their differences than by their
similarities.
2. Under the U. S. Constitution, the states are free to write their own
constitutions. In recent years, the states have used this constitutional authority to
modernize their legislative, executive and judicial institutions. The modernization
has brought about changes not only in the way in which public services are
delivered, but in the very ways that these governments operate. They have become
much more representative of the communities they serve, more transparent in their
deliberations, more responsive to their constituencies and more accessible to
ordinary citizens.
3. For example, most state and local governments operate under “sunshine
laws,” which require that meetings of public officials be open to the press and the
public. Many governments also operate under “sunset laws,” which means that
once a law or regulation expires, public meetings must be held before the law or
regulation is renewed. Most states have enacted laws regulating campaign finance,
requiring candidates to report the amount and source of their campaign
contributions. In some states, these reports are available on-line and can be
accessed by the press and by ordinary citizens. Arizona goes so far as to allow its
citizens to vote in primary elections via their computers. “E-government,” as it is
called, is just beginning, and the states and their communities are at the forefront in
enabling their citizens’ access to it.
