    The document discusses decentralization and metropolitan governance. It defines decentralization as the transfer of authority and responsibility for public functions from the central government to subordinate government organizations or the private sector. There are four main types of decentralization: political, administrative, fiscal, and market (or economic). Administrative decentralization seeks to redistribute authority for providing public services among different levels of government, while fiscal decentralization involves transferring financial responsibility through methods like self-financing, co-financing, local revenues, and intergovernmental transfers. Market decentralization involves shifting responsibility to the private sector through privatization and deregulation.

    I. What is Decentralization?
    Decentralization - the transfer of authority and responsibility for public
    functions from the central government to subordinate or quasi-independent
    government organizations and/or the private sector - is a complex multifaceted
    concept.

    1. Political

    Decentralization and Metropolitan Governance

    1. Political Decentralization
    Aims to give citizens or their elected representatives more power in
    public desision making. It often requires constitutional or statutory reforms, the
    development of pluralistic political parties, the strengthening of legislatures,
    creation of local political units, and the encouragement of effective public
    interest group.

    2. Administrative Decentralization
    Seeks to redistribute authority, responsibility and financial resources for
    providing public services among different levels of government. The three
    major forms of decentralization
    Decentralization and Metropolitan Governance
    Three major forms of administrative decentralization
    • Deconcentration
    • Delegation
    • Devolution

    3. Fiscal Decentralization
    Financial responsibility is a core component of decentralization. If local
    governments and private organizations are to carry out decentralized functions
    effectively, they must have an adequate level of revenues - either raised locally
    or transferred from the central government - as well as the authority to make
    decisions about expenditures.
    Decentralization and Metropolitan Governance
    Forms of Fiscal decentralization
    • Self-financing or cost recovery
    • Co-financing or co-production arrangements
    • Expansion of local revenues
    • Intergovernmental transfers
    • authorization of municipal borrowing

    4. Economic or Market Decentralization


    The most complete forms of decentralization from a government's
    perspective are privatization and deregulation because they shift responsibility
    for functions from the public to the private sector.
