Recenzii

“The Chapters furnish valuable theoretical perspectives with empirical evidences from across developing countries of African extraction. … The logical flow and clarity, coupled with contributors’ attention to explicating issues in detail makes reading comprehensible – even to laymen. Given its in-depth analysis of a diversity of public sectors, it undoubtedly makes valuable contributions to theory and practice, and as such remains relevant a reference for academics, policy makers, civil society and stakeholders, policy makers and students … .” (Vincent Ekow Arkorful, International Journal of Public Administration, June 7, 2022)
