Infrastructure Only Tends To Be Noticed When It Is Absent, Declining, Or Decrepit, Or When Enormous Cost Overruns, Time Delays, Or Citizen Protests Make The Headlines. If Infrastructure Is Indeed A Fundamental Driver Of Economic Growth And Social Development, Why Is It So Difficult To Get Right? In Addressing This Perennial Question, This Volume-the Fourth Edition In An Annual Series Tackling Different Aspects Of Governance Around The World-makes The Case For A Governance Perspective On Infrastructure. This Implies Moving Beyond Rational Economic Analysis Of What Should Be Done Towards An Analysis Of The Political, Institutional, And Societal Mechanisms That Shape Decision-making About Infrastructure Investment, Planning, And Implementation. Engaging With Theories From Sociology, Political Science, And Public Administration, And Drawing On Empirical Analyses Bridging Oecd And Non-oecd Countries, The Contributions To This Volume Dissect The Logics Of Infrastructure Governance In A Novel Way, Providing Timely Analyses That Will Enrich Both Scholarly And Policy Debates About How To Get Infrastructure Governance Right.
