【 摘 要 】

This guide focuses on one of the moregranular approaches to governance improvement, thegovernance and anti-corruption diagnostic. Governance andanti-corruption diagnostics are used as an initial strategyto identify the nature of governance problems, to target thekey sources or institutions associated with these problems,and to establish a baseline and indicators which can be usedto make reforms and to measure progress over time.Increasingly, these diagnostics are becoming sectoral innature, meaning they are customized to assess governance andanti-corruption in a targeted sector. If conducted properly,the diagnostic process informs and catalyzes stakeholders todemand reform. If repeated periodically, these diagnosticscan become useful tools to monitor governance andanti-corruption over time. More specifically, governance andanti-corruption diagnostics: 1) Unbundle corruption by type- administrative, capture of the state, bidding, theft ofgoods and public resources, purchase of licenses andregulations; 2) Identify both weak institutions (which arein need of reform) and strong institutions (which provideexamples of good governance); 3) Assess the cost of eachtype of corruption on different groups of stakeholders; 4)Provide insight into the relationship between corruption,service quality and access, and trust in publicinstitutions; 5) Identify key determinants of goodgovernance; and 6) Serve as a strong foundation for policyrecommendations and reform.
