This paper addresses the conditions
under which donor and non-state actor service provision is
likely to undermine or strengthen citizens'
legitimating beliefs. On the one hand, citizens may be less
likely to support their government with quasi-voluntary
compliance when they credit non-state actors or donors for
service provision. On the other hand, the provision of goods
and services by donors and non-state actors might strengthen
citizens' confidence in their government and their
willingness to defer to governmental laws and regulations if
citizens believe that the government is essential to
leveraging and managing these resources. The author assesses
these competing hypotheses using multi-level analyses of
Afrobarometer survey data. The sample, drawn from a
continuum of developing societies in Africa, allows for
analysis of associations between donor and non-state actor
service provision and the sense of obligation to comply with
the tax authorities, the police and courts. The findings
yield support for the hypothesis that the provision of
services by donors and non-state actors is strengthening,
rather than undermining, the relationship between citizens
and the state. |
