Intro to Comparative Politics
Decentralization is the process of distributing or dispersing functions, powers, people, or decision-making authority away from a central location or authority. This often leads to increased local autonomy and can promote efficiency and responsiveness in governance and public administration. By empowering local governments and communities, decentralization can enhance citizen participation and lead to more tailored policy solutions that address specific regional needs.
