520 | 3 | _aIn Nambia in 1990, apartheid was ended, and a democratic form of government was installed; 2 years later, the national government established a system o f partially decentralized regional governments. At the same time, the governments reacted to the severe drought of 1992 by instituing a national drought relief bureaucracy with particular attention to the predominatly Black African communal areas, which incorporated the new regional councils . This, in turn, created the opportunitiy for those councils to serve as organizatinal nodes within widening policy and informational networks related to the drought relief process. These networks incorporated village leaders, ministry officials, and the regional councillors and helped to assure the effective implementation of the drought relief program. This suggests a strong (although not determining) link between informational networks and policy outcomes. This article also maked clear that provided sufficient behavioral responsibility, subnational governmental bodies can play crucial roles in drought relief processes in developing-world settings | |
