Birmingham governance seminar presentation

Creating knowledge to end poverty

3. MDGs and governance
• Governance not allowed in MDG goals –
no UN Summit on it. Only the preamble…
as with human rights and social justice
• Despite OECD/IFI leadership of key parts
of late MDG process – IDGs & ‘final deal’
• Governance off the goal agenda – treat all
countries as peaceful…do not confuse
rich world publics with unpredictability
4. Post-2015 Agenda and
Governance
• In 2012 when post-2015 discussion was
permitted governance and even ‘good
governance’ achieved inclusion
• By 2015 ‘governance’ was removed
(except for ‘global governance’)
• Confusion about ‘institutions’ –
accountable and inclusive or STRONG?
• National positions…complicated
negotiations…and UN processes
5. The UN High Level Panel’s Illustrative Goal for Governance
Goal 10: Ensure Good Governance and Effective Institutions
a) Provide free and universal legal identity, such as birth registrations
b) Ensure that people enjoy freedom of speech, association, peaceful protest
and access to independent media and information
c) Increase public participation in political processes and civic engagement
at all levels
d) Guarantee the public’s right to information and access to government data
e) Reduce bribery and corruption and ensure officials can be held
accountable

6. Why was governance framed so
ambitiously by HLP?
• Conversations and speculations
• ‘Illustrative’ so save battles for another day
• David Cameron and ‘golden thread’ – not
challenged or nor listening to empirics?
• Consequences of HLP gender balance –
lots of women with rights/gender equality
backgrounds…limited ‘politics as usual’

11. SDGs – Goal 16 indicators
• UN Statistical Commission leading
process to finalize the indicators
• Goal 10 (inequality) and goal 16
(governance) are the ‘headaches’
• Technically – lack of LDC coverage by
datasets (except WGI); significant
measurement error (Kaufmann); intrinsic
or instrumental justification…very
political…are D.C. goals legitimate?
12. Intrinsic or instrumental
justification
• Intrinsic – eg Goal 5 on Gender Equality.
For Goal 10 a focus on state legitimacy,
accountability, transparency, rule of law
• Instrumental – development outcomes.
Contested: contract enforcement,
protection of private property, state
capacity. Hulme et al ‘state capacity’ –
government’s ability to make and enforce
rules and deliver services
13. Goal 10 and the long term
• Focus on not taking short-term decisions
that undermine governance measures
• Looking for evolution of governance
statistics as specialist statistical field with
international standards
• Long-term, slow, boring, technically-
oriented process – how change happens!
14. Conclusions 1
• Indicators should set minimum global
standards for fixed dates and focus on
state capacity plus all countries pursue
improved measures on an annual basis.
• Two main tasks: (short-term) set credible
international targets. (Longer-term) design
and implement processes that routinize
governance measurement in all national
statistical offices.
15. Conclusion 2
• Short-term: existing indices are subject to short country
coverage, comparability and legitimacy issues and
methodological shortcomings. The interpretation of
changes in governance may therefore be challenged in
the future, technically and politically.
• Longer-term: develop governance measures that are
globally legitimate – UN or G77-type measures that form
basis for rich world/developing world compromise; help a
governance statistical sub-profession evolve.
