2. GOVERNANCE AND GOOD GOVERNANCE
UN defines Governance as a “process of making and implementing
decisions”.
GG is an ideal proposition And difficult to achieve in its totality.
GG is an instrument of Public Affairs Management.
Eight Major Characteristics of GG:
Consensus oriented Participatory
Follows the rule of law Effective & Efficient
Accountable Transparent
Responsive Equitable & Inclusive.
3. BACK GROUND
Fast growing awareness and melting boundaries compel managers,
social workers and political actors to connect, engage and communicate
with the public and voters to the level of their satisfaction.
To satisfy them, social and political actors have broadened their
boundaries by Information & Communication Technology (ICT) and
marketing.
ICT and marketing have affected and impacted all walks of life in the
society.
Landscape, number, and fast desired speed of GG, public actors must
work in tandem with ICT and marketing to have desired results.
Indian Yoga Guru Baba Ram Dev is one of the best current practising
social marketers.
President Barrack Obama and PM Modi have set precedent in political
marketing worldwide.
4. RESEARCH PROBLEM( GAP)
Programmes, projects, ideas etc. for public welfare and overall development
of society and masses may be categorized as social products.
Ministries/Departments/Sections create such social products.
Government markets social products for no profit with a primary ambition of
achieving GG.
While marketing, Government is not involving all 8 parameters as per GG
concept.
And if involved they are not managed effectively.
Thus Gaps in GG are cropped in. We aim to find it out in our research.
Finding the GAP by analyzing the experiences/ perceptions of the citizens
vis-a-vis the conditions laid down by UN for GG.
