Governance has come to define one of the frontier areas of reach in the social sciences. There is growing interest in the political and policy domain concerning the meaning and content governance in a globalizing world. Governance issues have serious policy implementations in terms of reform of public institutions towards greater transparency, efficiency and accountability. Civil society groups call for a more inclusive and participatory governance thus restoring to governance issues a political dimension. Thus the significance of governance as an emerging area of research and practice cannot be overemphasized.
