Shamsul  aRecent transition in governance in South Asia: contexts, dimensions, and implications  c2001  ap.1405-436  aThere has been a paradigmatic shift in the mode of governance in capitalist nations, developing countries, and postcommunist states.  Under the newly emerging neoliberal state, which has largely replaced other state formations, public governance has undergone significant transformation.  In comparison with the earlier mode, the new mode of governance has the objective of narrow economic growth rather than overall development, the role to support rather than lead service delivery, the structure of managerial autonomy rather than accountability, and the standards based on business norms rather than public ethics.  This mode of governance, which emerged in advanced industrial nations, has been extended to most developing countries, including those in South Asia.  This paper explores the origins and trends of recent changes in governance in South Asian countries, and evaluates the critical implications of such changes for various dimensions of society in these countries.
