Confidence, Coalition, and Sustainable Governance in the 21st Century
Session
Political Sciences
Description
This study examines the transformation of international governance through three imperatives: restoring the public sector's leadership amid private dominance, rethinking postCold War "Good Governance" models that have reached their limits, and recognising the growing ownership of reforms by host nations under the guidance of multilateral actors like the World Bank. It argues that the sustainable governance depends on four principles: confidence rooted in competence to rebuild trust; the global fight against corruption as the main barrier to progress; the formation of coalitions that view compromise as progress, not weakness; and the sustaining of hope through long-term citizen engagement. Together, these principles propose a framework for adaptive, inclusive, and durable governance-one that revitalised public institution, transcends outdated paradigms, and strengthens international cooperation in an increasingly complex global environment.
