Is it lack of law & enforcement?
Can the HUGE difference between developed & developing countries - be attributed to lack of law & enforcement? (apart from the other aspects of economy, population etc) - let’s take couple of examples find the differences & analyze if these could be solved with better law enforcement:
Town Planning -
Traffic Control / Management -
I could think of following reasons - some of them are because of financial constraints, but some are easy to avoid
-Bhaskara
Town Planning -
- Developed countries have a great town planning - that would ensure there is no compromise on width of the road, number of house in a street, standard dimension of plot / house
- Isn't this a case of proper law & ENFORCEMENT (is more important than law) - as even in developed countries we establish some form of law / rules & regulations around town planning - but they are brutally abused because of lack of enforcement (more in detail later)
Traffic Control / Management -
- Same as above - developed countries have much more organized movement of traffic, adherence to rules - if broken would mean serious consequences
- Developing countries - have some laws, but the enforcement is poor or even the authorities break them (don’t set by example)
I could think of following reasons - some of them are because of financial constraints, but some are easy to avoid
- Respect by law safe guards towards the law / rules & regulation is low - either they are not educated well enough about the law or they are aware & ignore it
- Authorities have too many other things to handle - tend to compromise on the law enforcement
- Lack of second level of review or check on enforcement authorities - should there be a second level of check on the enforcement authorities to make sure they are not being lenient on the law enforcement
- Lack of funds to enforce - you need sufficient funds to enforce the law & they are short in many cases, could this be solved if government considers the cost of enforcement as part of an initiative, so sufficient funds are allocated?
