Read the following paragraph and answer the questions.

New patterns of interaction between governments and society can be observed in areas such as social welfare, environmental protection, education and physical planning. Development assistance to the Third World countries in the post- Cold War era has been subject to the new politics of good-governance. In 1989, the concept of governance' was for the first time highlighted in a World Bank document on Sub-Saharan Africa. Four key dimensions identified in this context were - public sector management; accountability; legal framework for development; and information and transparency. The OECD linked development assistance with participatory development, human rights and democratization.

The 'good governance' paradigm has brought to surface the role of civil society in local collective social problem solving. Alexis De Tocqueville linked civil society to democracy in the mid 1800s. Robert Putnam, the neo-Tocquevillian, emphasized on social capital and observed that the propensity of individuals to join private, voluntary associations contributes to the effectiveness of democracy. Larry Diamond in his work 'Developing Democracy', emphasized that a healthy liberal democracy requires a public that is organized for democracy, socialized to its norms and values and committed not just to its myriad narrow interests but to larger, common civic ends. Such a civic public is only possible with a vibrant civil society.
