Indicators

In this research, we have used binary, “yes/no,” indicators and coded each indicator based on publicly available data sources for metropolitan municipalities. Governance scorecards reflect the sum of the weighted scores assigned to each indicator. Weights are determined in relation to three dimensions of governance. (See: Definitions)

Principle of Good Governance: Refers to the good governance principle that is measured by an indicator. We define seven principles of good governance as the following: Consistency, Responsibility and Responsiveness, Accountability, Fairness and Inclusiveness, Transparency, Effectiveness and Efficiency, Representation and Participation.

Governing Process: Refers to the governing process that corresponds to an indicator. An indicator might be relevant to one of the following processes: Agenda Setting / Decision Making, Resource Utilization, Implementation, Institutional Functioning / Capacity.

Institutional learning: Each indicator has been classified also in terms of its relationship with institutional learning. An indicator might correspond to one of the following steps of the learning cycle: Structure and Direction, Deployment, Measurement and Evaluation.
