ABSTRACT

This study tried to re-examine the relevance of management authority for major road and nation river, which have been regarded as representative areas to be transferred to local government, from more empirical perspective than theoretic and normative viewpoint. As a result, main features of major road and national river are revealed as semi-pure public goods, network type, non-consistence with local administration jurisdiction and thus it is suggested that more unified management is necessary. According to this analysis, a question arises whether it is suitable to transfer management authority from administrative field agency of central government to local government who is in charge of only in limited jurisdictional area instead of whole area of influence. The reason of continual failure of transferring the management authority to local government may be attributed to such inappropriateness rather than simple lack of driving force or other environmental factors. Pushing ahead such transferring policy regardless of management capacity or willingness of local government as seeing it as a given desirable goal is another problem to be re-examined. In future, we need to examine the particular features of policy targets in detail before making a decision of transferring the management authority.
