15. Alternative Service Delivery Systems: Decentralization Confederation- Lower level Units Dominate: European Union and other regional associations Federal Relationship Some power lies with National Unit Some power lies with lower units

16. Alternative Service Delivery Systems Federal Relationship Key distinction: Lower units cannot break away from National Unit National Units cannot take power away from lower units Under Federalism: One can transfer additional authority back to sub-units but not take power from federated governments

18. Alternative Service Delivery Systems Federal Relationships Examples USA Canada Germany Nigeria India Russian Federation Austria Switzerland Malaysia

20. Alternative Service Delivery Systems Unitary Systems and Sub-regional units All power ultimately lies at national level Local level power is given by national level Power that national unit has given to local level can also be taken from it

21. Unitary Systems

22. Alternative Service Delivery Systems Unitary Systems and Sub-regional units Examples United Kingdom France Kenya Ivory Coast South Africa? Japan

24. Forms of Decentralized Service Delivery in Unitary Systems Concept: Transfer of authority to a lower level of government Primary Unit of Government: Lowest level that carries a bureaucracy with it

26. Forms of Decentralized Service Delivery in Unitary Systems “Devolution”: Transfer to non-Federal political body Budget and personal authority to district and town councils Key--power lies with lower level politicians

27. Future Devolution?

28. Forms of Decentralized Service Delivery in Unitary Systems De-concentration: Transfer to non-Federal political body Transfer of authority to administrators at lower level within the administrative system Delegation Public Corporations or parastatals Privatization- Ideological Debates

31. Deconcentration

32. Forms of Decentralized Service Delivery in Unitary Systems Program and Project Decentralization: Sectoral - By regular line or agency within aMinistry e.g. Focused activity - seed production (Green Revolution) agricultural experiments and extension

34. Forms of Decentralized Service Delivery in Unitary Systems Program and Project Decentralization: Deconcentration or Devolution of authority to central level special unit e.g. Water, health, emergency or education activities or projects to subordinate administrative or council structures Port authorities

36. Forms of Decentralized Service Delivery in Unitary Systems Program and Project Decentralization: Inter-Ministerial Committees or Units Planning supervision Overlapping memberships, e.g. Land Use Planning

38. Forms of Decentralized Service Delivery in Unitary Systems Program and Project Decentralization: Creation of field level Special Project Units with semi- autonomous status Range Management project Integrated Rural Development

39. Integrated Rural Development- IRD Most well-known type of special project: Special designated geographical areas Multitude of project activity in different sectors that may overlap or compliment

40. IRD Principles

41. Develop Strategy for Report Backs
