| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research project analyzed the government’s engagement with improvement of governance in response to requests from the opposition to improve the accountability and transparency of the government’s development policy preventing it from corruption.
I have analyzed the process of establishing a new anti-corruption authority using collected public information and interviews in Kuwait. The process can be acclaimed as the engagement of government with improvement of the governance; however it is necessary to follow its development and to analyze effectiveness because the actual authority is still uncertain. For publication, I gave presentations at international symposiums and conferences and received beneficial feedback for summarizing the research outcome in terms of the state-business relations, competition between social groups for political resource allocation, and the effect on development of businesses in the Gulf states.
