Abstract

This article sets out to examine World Bank's efforts at strengthening good in Albania case study, in developing countries and improving effectiveness of aid. It focuses on relationship between good and aid effectiveness in providing a critical assessment of Bank's approach to reform in developing countries. This paper scrutinizes shifts in policies and strategies of Bank during 1990s as well as research it generated to support them. The wide array of issues under governance occupies center stage in debate and agenda of international financial institutions (IFIs). The concept of captures the manner in which power is exercised in management of a country's economic and social resources for development (World Bank 1992, 1). Dervish Kaptur and Richard Webb attest: For IFIs, new mandate is a boost to their importance, but one fraught with peril. The new mission arrived at a moment when growing doubts regarding purpose and effectiveness of IFIs. On matters of public administration, Government's strategy focused on addressing two inter-related sets of interventions: (a) strengthening public financial management, including management of both public expenditures and revenues; and (b) strengthening human resource management. On matters relating to public sector human resource management, reform strategy envisaged addressing this issue in two major stages: civil service reform and broader public sector human resource management reform. During first stage, reforms aimed to create managerial and professional nucleus required to lead any serious efforts to improve accountability and performance of public institutions. Subsequently, in a second stage, reform would address larger body of public employees to improve productivity and accountability for their work and ensure that public policies, programs and services are delivered reliably and cost-effectively.

Introduction

We want to start this paper research with definition like this:"Justice without strength is helpless, strength without justice is tyrannical. We want to start this paper research with definition like this:. The role of an effective regulatory regime in promoting economic growth and development has generated considerable interest among researchers and practitioners in recent years. This paper explores the role of state regulation using an econometric model of the impact of regulation on growth. The results based on two different techniques of estimation suggest a strong causal link between regulatory quality and economic performance. In December 2007, the government adopted amendments to the Law on evaluation of the performance of civilͳͳ͹̱. In January 2008, a new reward system for civil servants entered into force. The Civil Service Law regulating public administration is in place, but it is not applied systematically.
