François Vaillancourt (2008) L’Economie Polique de la Décentralisation à Madagascar
This summary presents a synthesis of discussions that took place at a World Bank-EU workshop on decentralisation processes in Madagascar. It draws lessons from an analysis of: 1) the recent history of decentralisation, 2) the drivers of decentralisation, 3) the factors for success or failure, and 4) the trends for 2008-2015. This reflection took place when the Madagascar government was considering whether to establish a Local Development Fund for strengthening the powers and implementation capacity of the communes.

Bumpus (2011). UNRISD. Realizing Local Development in the Carbon Commodity Chain: Political Economy, Value and Connecting Carbon Commodities at Multiple Scales
This paper provides an analysis of how local community development is connected to the global carbon economy through the creation of carbon commodities (offset credits) and the role of premium credit certification in assisting in local development. The paper shows that information on local conditions should be focused on political-economic processes and the interactions between actors to nuance the social benefits of carbon credit generation in developing country contexts.

Train4dev (2011) Harmonisation, Decentralisation, Local Governance. Linkages between decentralisation and sector support. Participants Kit
This participants’ kit presents the relationship of decentralisation with sector-support programmes. The central question is how to combine sector support programmes and decentralisation reforms so that they reinforce each other in improving service delivery. In fact, one of the main objectives of decentralisation is improving service delivery and poverty reduction by making governments more responsive to citizens’ needs, improving access to and quality of public services and strengthening accountability.
