Conference, Governing the government: the challenges of accountability in a democracy in repair

Abstract

This fourteenth meeting has been convened to reflect on and debate accountability and transparency, this time with an emphasis on the weakening of political and administrative control mechanisms and the consequent effect this could have on democracy. And we are asked: what can be done from outside the government to correct this weakness?
