Many of these interventions have limited impact, however; schools get built but children don't learn, IT systems are introduced but not used, plans are written but not implemented. These achievement deficiencies reveal gaps in capabilities, and weaknesses in the process of building state capability. This book addresses these weaknesses and gaps. It starts by providing evidence of the capability shortfalls that currently exist in many countries, showing that many governments lack basic capacities even after decades of reforms and capacity building efforts. The book then analyses this evidence, identifying capability traps that hold many governments back. 606 $aState, The 606 $aPolitical science 615 0$aState, The. 615 0$aPolitical science. 676 $a820.8 700 $aAndrews$b Matt$f1972-$0929887 702 $aPritchett$b Lant 702 $aWoolcock$b Michael J.
