چکیده

توجه به اهمیت توسعه و پذیرش نظریه حکمرانی خوب یک مدل ایده‌آل جهت توسعه پایدار است. حکمرانی خوب با فراهم کردن فضا برای فرآیندهای مشارکتی، بستر مناسبی برای تقویت جامعه مدنی در کنار دولت و بخش خصوصی در اداره کشورها به‌شمار می‌رود. در این میان، سازمان‌های مردم‌نهاد به‌عنوان بخش مهمی از جامعه مدنی، در تلاش‌اند تا حفره‌های دولت را در مناطق جغرافیایی پر کنند.
در زمینه حکمرانی خوب بر مبانی شاخص‌های ارائه شده توسط کمیسیون اقتصادی در برگیرنده استفاده صحیح از منابع طبیعی است. در بحث سازمان‌های مردم‌نهاد، می‌توان به اهمیت آنها بعنوان یکی از بازیگران کلیدی برای تحقق حکمروایی خوب در چهارچوب ارتقای سرمایه اجتماعی اشاره کرد. پژوهش حاضر که از نوع توصیفی-مقایسه‌ای است، به بررسی مقایسه‌ای تحقق مؤلفه‌های حکمرانی خوب (با مولفه‌های پاسخگویی، شفافیت، مسئولیت‌پذیری و حاکمیت قانون) از طریق سازمان‌های مردم‌نهاد و حکومت‌های محلی در ایران پرداخته است. نتایج، نشان داد که سازمان‌های مردم‌نهاد در تحقق مؤلفه‌های حکمرانی خوب مطلوب‌تر از حکومت محلی عمل کرده‌اند و مؤلفه‌های حکمرانی خوب به شکل معناداری بر شاخص‌های کنترلی فقر، فساد و رفع تبعیض و نابرابری ارتباط دارند که این هدف عالی از مجرای کنشگری فعالانه سازمان‌های مردم‌نهاد قابل تحقق است.

چکیده [English]

Good governance, by providing space for participatory processes, is a good platform for strengthening civil society alongside government and the private sector in governing countries. Meanwhile, NGOs, as an important part of civil society, are trying to fill government loopholes in geographical areas. In the discussion of non-governmental organizations, we can point to their importance as one of the key players for achieving good governance in the context of promoting social capital. The present study, which is a descriptive-comparative study, compares the components of good governance (with those of accountability, transparency, accountability and rule of law) by non-governmental organizations and local governments in Iran. The sample size of the study was 296 people (157 members of NGOs and 140 members of local government) who were selected through available sampling and snowball. The results showed that the NGOs have performed better than the local government in achieving the components of good governance. The components of good governance were significantly related to the control indicators of poverty, corruption, and the elimination of discrimination and inequality, which is a great goal to be achieved through the active performance of non-governmental organizations.
