This book traces the implementation of the good governance agenda in Malawi from World Bank policy documents to the individual experiences of civil servants who responded in unforeseen ways to the reform. It presents a fine-grained ethnographic account of what African civil servants actually do, both at home and the office.

Presents an anthropological perspective on the hidden continuities between corruption and law. This book argues that the two opposites, corruption and law, are inextricably linked - with the possibility of the former already inscribed into the latter. It is suitable for students, researchers and policy-makers working in this area.
