本书概述了参与式预算的基本原则。它分析了世界各国参与式预算实践的优缺点,并指导政策制定者和实践者为实现包容的政府治理应该如何改进参与式预算实践。本书包括5个地区的调查和7个国家的案例研究,案例研究见书后所附光碟。该研究表明,作为包容和可问责政府治理的重要工具,参与式预算已经被预算实践者与学者们提出,并已在世界上许多发展中国家以多种形式实施。通过参与式预算,公民有机会获得政府运作的第一手资料,从而影响政府政策并对政府行为问责。然而,参与过程也有被利益集团利用的风险,被利用风险增进了政府决策中的精英主义倾向。本书从全世界的实践中审视了参与式预算的前景与风险。本书分为三个部分。第一个部分介绍了参与式预算的基本要素。第二个部分是全球各地区的调查经验。第三部分(卷2)则包含在本书所附的光碟中,它回顾了7个国家的实践案例研究。
200多年来,西方民主制度中政府结构的制衡体系是实现有效政府治理的核心,赋予了公民应享有的权利。然而,很多发展中国家的政府治理体系仍然经常运作不力,存在着资源配置不当、税收体制效率低下,以及一些关键的公共服务设施质量不高等问题。本书为从公众问责的视角评估政府财政健康状况提供了工具,包括:预算的政治经济学、基于绩效的预算、收入绩效和债务管理、政府净资产的衡量、财政风险的评估、公共服务的改革以及问责制度的加强。

本书总体上可划分为两大部分:第一部分即前三章讨论广泛的绩效测量,这部分从工业化国家的绩效测量体系中吸取经验教训,提供一个评估政府质量的简单指标和评估地方政府绩效的框架;第二部分关注如何测量所挑选出的发展中国家公共部门的服务提供绩效,从而为政府服务的绩效提供了操作性指导,内容包括发展中国家通常会遇到的结果测量事项、地方与市政服务提供方式选择与绩效、健康与基础设施服务绩效的测量等。本书以发展中国家政府服务提供绩效的测量问题为研究对象,它涉及政府服务绩效测量的多个研究视角:绩效测量的范围、发展中国家地方政府绩效测量以及结果导向的绩效测量以及专向公共服务(健康、基础设施)的绩效测量等,对于提高各国政府服务能力,实行高校的公共管理和善治,具有重要意义。
