This book, Building Good Governance: Reforms in Seoul, published by the National Center for Public Productivity and the Seoul Development Institute, contains as cases the reforms which Seoul planned and administered. It addresses the impacts of those reforms as well as difficulties and problems in the implementation process.

As there has rarely been such analytical and comparative information available on reform cases in the Asian region, this book should prove to be an invaluable contribution to the countries which plan to promote similar reforms.

The book consists of four major sections: enhancing transparency, improving integrity, upgrading responsiveness, and increasing productivity. In the volume, there are discussions as to the background and the application process, the problems discovered in the application process, the efforts to overcome those problems, and the program effects of the specific reform project.
