Abstract

In this chapter we offer an interpretation of the national level data to suggest how national circumstances, government effectiveness and credibility, and societal outcomes are linked together as interrelated phenomena. We will suggest that it is possible to interpret the evidence as showing the plausibility of a model of sustainable societal progress achieved by effective and credible governments that have strategic management capabilities.
