Griffith Asia Institute Research Seminar: Decentralisation, clientelism and social assistance programs: A study of India's MGNREGA

Does decentralisation promote clientelism? If yes, through which mechanisms? We answer these questions through an analysis of India's (and the world's) largest workfare programme, the Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA), in two Indian states: Rajasthan and Andhra Pradesh. Dr Diego Maiorano is a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow at the University of Nottingham in the UK.
