The Future of Governance in the United States: 1992-2002

GARY GAPPERT

This article offers a ten-year perspective on the necessity for more governance and less government. The barriers to this conversion are not insurmountable, but they are political. Therefore, an individual, political, and institutional transformation is required. Currently, the United States is entering a new era of redefining the purpose of leaders and institutions, restructuring old ideologies, and redirecting the focus of responsibilities in order to meet the global challenges ahead; this era will continue well into the twenty-first century. This article describes the key elements necessary for successful governance. These elements include a new democracy; strategic cooperation; a new federalism; decentralization; a new moral infrastructure; individual responsibility and new leaders; collaborative partnerships and stability; and increased competition and technological growth.
