New District Creation in Uganda and Local Actors: Passive Recipients Or Active Pursuers?
Journal of Public Administration and Governance ISSN 2161-7104 2018, Vol. 8, No. 2 New District Creation in Uganda and Local Actors: Passive Recipients or Active Pursuers? Tabaro Robert (Corresponding Author) Kyambogo University P.O Box 01, Kyambogo, Uganda Katusiimeh Mesharch Makerere University Business School, P.O Box 1337, Kampala, Uganda Nadia Molenaers Institute of Development Policy and Management Lange St.-Annastraat 7, B-2000 ANTWERP Prinsstraat 13, B-2000 ANTWERP, Belgium Received: March 26, 2018 Accepted: May 8, 2018 Online published: May 24, 2018 doi:10.5296/jpag.v8i2.13191 URL: https://doi.org/10.5296/jpag.v8i2.13191 Abstract From the 1990s, Uganda embarked on a process of subdividing administrative units (districts) as part of the decentralization programme supposedly to bring services closer to the people. Literature has, however, shown that in most of the cases the process is used as a strategy by the incumbent president- Museveni for his political survival. As such, new district creation is seen as a process driven by central political elites. The role of local policy entrepreneurs (actors) has thus been given limited attention. Basing on thirty five elite interviews and document review, we established that local policy entrepreneurs do matter in policy change processes and can at times challenge the position of central political elites. Focusing on the new district of Sheema in western Uganda (split from „mother‟ district of Bushenyi in 2010), we found out that president Museveni who initially „opposed‟ the idea of a new district had to finally give in to peoples‟ demands. This was because local policy entrepreneurs in Sheema were determined, eager, highly motivated and smart in strategizing and forming alliances in 62 http://jpag.macrothink.org Journal of Public Administration and Governance ISSN 2161-7104 2018, Vol.
