Outline of Final Research Achievements

The objective of this study is to surpass the current general theory in the study of governance, by incorporating international development and international politics in a systemized method, taking into account both the country specific and universality in elements of governance in the analysis, with reference to the procedures of political economic analysis of each country as put forward by DFID and promoted by EU countries, the World Bank and others.
Research conducted in Rwanda were incorporated in 4 papers for the first year, and results for second year research in Cambodia were published in “Development in Developing Countries Based on a Social Survey”, and thereafter “Sixty One Books in the Study of International Politics: Understanding Governance in Developing Countries”, making a big step forward in incorporating international development and international politics in a systemized method.
