Municipal governments in the Global South vary in their ability to provide not only complex social services, like environmentally proper solid waste disposal, but even simple services, like trash collection from the streets. This article examines whether variation in service provision outcomes is associated with service-specific municipal administrative capacity, locally embedded civil society organization (CSO) presence, and collaborative governance for local planning and budgeting (or cogovernance). Using a panel dataset of Peruvian municipalities, I find that while all three factors are associated with better outcomes for simple services, only greater public administration capacity is associated with higher service outcomes when the service is more complex. This suggests that CSOs may face some difficulties to supplement the state in the provision of relatively complex services and that local cogovernance venues tend to prioritize more immediate service issues. These findings have policy implications for managing relatively complex services in Global South cities that struggle with service-specific administrative capacity and relatively complex service provision, particularly those with climate change consequences. They convey that strengthening this type of capacity at the office level is crucial to providing increasingly complex services, and supporting community-based CSOs and cogovernance venues may help as a strategy to address simple service delivery.

共同治理和公民社会组织是否补充了市政提供服务的能力?评估简单服务与复杂服务的差异

南半球的市政府在提供复杂的社会服务(如环境适宜的固体废物处理)的能力上各不相同,甚至提供简单的服务(如从街头收集垃圾)的能力也各不相同。本文研究了服务提供结果的变化是否与特定服务的市政管理能力、当地嵌入的公民社会组织 (CSO) 的存在以及地方规划和预算编制(或共同治理)的协作治理有关。使用秘鲁城市的面板数据集,我发现虽然所有三个因素都与简单服务的更好结果相关,但当服务更复杂时,只有更大的公共管理能力与更高的服务结果相关。这表明公民社会组织在提供相对复杂的服务方面可能面临一些困难,以补充国家,并且地方共治场所倾向于优先考虑更直接的服务问题。这些发现对于在服务特定的行政能力和相对复杂的服务提供方面遇到困难的全球南方城市管理相对复杂的服务具有政策意义,特别是那些具有气候变化后果的城市。他们表示,在办公室层面加强此类能力对于提供日益复杂的服务至关重要,支持以社区为基础的 CSO 和共同治理场所可能有助于作为解决简单服务交付的战略。这些发现对于在服务特定的行政能力和相对复杂的服务提供方面遇到困难的全球南方城市管理相对复杂的服务具有政策意义,特别是那些具有气候变化后果的城市。他们表示,在办公室层面加强此类能力对于提供日益复杂的服务至关重要,支持基于社区的 CSO 和共同治理场所可能有助于解决简单服务交付问题。这些发现对于在服务特定的行政能力和相对复杂的服务提供方面遇到困难的全球南方城市管理相对复杂的服务具有政策意义,特别是那些具有气候变化后果的城市。他们表示,在办公室层面加强此类能力对于提供日益复杂的服务至关重要,支持基于社区的 CSO 和共同治理场所可能有助于解决简单服务交付问题。
