ABSTRACT

During the 21st century, socially equitable economic growth and sustainable human development are also goals that most countries over the world are pursuing, which emphasized the notion of “good governance”, or “sound governance”, or “democratic governance”. For Vietnam, how to promote and strengthen democratic governance must be one of the most crucial issues to achieve Sustainable Development Goals. This study is innovative as applying democratic governance to examine the influence of citizen participation on the performance of local governments in Vietnam with four different aspects: economic, institutional, political, and administrative. We employ Random Effect Model (REM) to test six hypotheses developed from the literature review. The secondary data come from four sources, including The Public Administration Performance Index, the Provincial Competitiveness Index, the Public Administration Reform Index, and the General Statistics Office of 63 provinces of Vietnam from 2012 to 2017. Some major findings: (1) citizen participation at the local level has mixed effects on institutional, administrative, and political performances; and has no significant effect on economic performance. In other words, citizen participation is positively associated with institutional and political performances but is negatively associated with individual province’s administrative performance. Particularly, under the effect of citizen participation, institutional performance can be improved more intensified than political performance. (2) The efficiency of government spending/per capita, the disparities between the Kinh people and ethnic minorities, and the regional differences between the North and the South, all of these factors influence the level of citizen participation and the performance of local government in Vietnam. This study supplements very limited literature and provides several policy implications concerning democratic governance for policymakers in Vietnam.

民主治理:考察公民参与对越南地方政府绩效的影响

摘要

21世纪,社会公平的经济增长和人类的可持续发展也是世界上大多数国家追求的目标,强调“善治”或“健全的治理”或“民主治理”的概念。对越南而言,如何促进和加强民主治理必须是实现可持续发展目标的最关键问题之一。本研究具有创新性,即应用民主治理从经济、制度、政治和行政四个不同方面考察公民参与对越南地方政府绩效的影响。我们采用随机效应模型 (REM) 来测试从文献综述中得出的六个假设。二手数据来自四个来源,包括公共行政绩效指数、2012 年至 2017 年越南 63 个省的省级竞争力指数、公共行政改革指数和统计总局。 ; 且对经济运行无显着影响。换言之,公民参与与制度和政治绩效呈正相关,但与个别省份的行政绩效呈负相关。特别是在公民参与的作用下,制度绩效比政治绩效更能得到提升。(2) 政府支出效率/人均,两者之间的差距 2012 年至 2017 年越南 63 个省的统计总局。且对经济运行无显着影响。换言之,公民参与与制度和政治绩效呈正相关,但与个别省份的行政绩效呈负相关。特别是在公民参与的作用下,制度绩效比政治绩效更能得到提升。(2) 政府支出效率/人均,两者之间的差距 2012 年至 2017 年越南 63 个省的统计总局。且对经济运行无显着影响。换言之,公民参与与制度和政治绩效呈正相关,但与个别省份的行政绩效呈负相关。特别是在公民参与的作用下,制度绩效比政治绩效更能得到提升。(2) 政府支出效率/人均,两者之间的差距 (1) 地方层面的公民参与对制度、行政和政治绩效的影响是混合的;且对经济运行无显着影响。换言之,公民参与与制度和政治绩效呈正相关,但与个别省份的行政绩效呈负相关。特别是在公民参与的作用下,制度绩效比政治绩效更能得到提升。(2) 政府支出效率/人均,两者之间的差距 (1) 地方层面的公民参与对制度、行政和政治绩效的影响是混合的;且对经济运行无显着影响。换言之,公民参与与制度和政治绩效呈正相关,但与个别省份的行政绩效呈负相关。特别是在公民参与的作用下,制度绩效比政治绩效更能得到提升。(2) 政府支出效率/人均,两者之间的差距 公民参与与制度和政治绩效呈正相关,但与个别省份的行政绩效呈负相关。特别是在公民参与的作用下,制度绩效比政治绩效更能得到提升。(2) 政府支出效率/人均,两者之间的差距 公民参与与制度和政治绩效呈正相关,但与个别省份的行政绩效呈负相关。特别是在公民参与的作用下,制度绩效比政治绩效更能得到提升。(2) 政府支出效率/人均,两者之间的差距族和少数民族,以及南北之间的地区差异,所有这些因素都影响着越南公民的参与水平和地方政府的绩效。本研究补充了非常有限的文献,并为越南的决策者提供了有关民主治理的若干政策含义。
