Description

The link between good governance and economic and social development has been well established in the last few decades. Although it is hard to have a precise definition of governance there is a wide consensus that good governance must lead to broad-based inclusive economic growth and social development. It must enable the state, the civil society and the private sector to enhance the well being of a large segment of the population. If this definition is accepted then economic growth in Pakistanis likely to become unsustainable if a widespread perception persists that the majority of the population has not been gaining from recent growth. This perception, whether right or wrong, erodes political support for continuation of present economic policies and reforms.
