Quick Notes

Meta-Governance and the Informal Reality of Nepal's Bureaucracy

Binod Pokharel

02.07.2025

This text addresses the concept of meta-governance—the governance of governance—which combines rules, markets, and networks to manage complex systems. It explains how, in Nepal, despite theoretical potential for improving accountability, governance is undermined by pervasive corruption, patronage, and inefficiency. Citizens often rely on bribes or brokers (dalals) to obtain basic services, as bureaucratic processes are routinely distorted into private deals. Rather than regulating informal networks, the state frequently sustains them, turning public offices into venues for elite bargaining. Without reforms aligning rules with citizens’ needs and constraining clientelism, Nepal’s public services remain inaccessible to those without connections or resources.

Meta-governance literally means "governance of governance." The origins of meta-governance are in public administration and political science (Jessop 1997). It is about how governments can steer complex systems through directing rules, markets and networks. It shows us that the state can no longer rely upon one mode of control, but rather determine a blend of hierarchical regulation, market incentives and stakeholder or stakeholder-seized networks to arrive at optimal conditions for each issue. Meta-governance can be seen as practice by public authorities that involves the open coordination of one or more modes of governance using various instruments, approaches and strategies in response to governance failures (Gjaltema et al. 2020). It is about effectively managing the overarching governance ecosystem - "governing the governors," not just enacting new regulations of providing subsidies. Ideally, it ends up being about a more coordination policy response through design and management of appropriate mixes of hierarchy, market, and network governance - among other things. (For example - firm land use rules in connection with social excursions managed by community and private sector partnerships with consideration of local contexts). Gjaltema et al. (2020) give some caution on the conceptual vagueness of the term as it runs the risk of becoming a “catch-all” phrase that lacks analytical clarity.

In the theoretical literature, meta-governance aims to move beyond the pointless debates of “government versus governance” by demonstrating how public actors can coordinate a variety of modes. Meta-governance relies upon Jessop's idea of the "governance of complexity" but the main message is really rather straightforward: no society relies solely upon formal law or solely upon private markets as it draws from both (and a lot more besides). Brinkerhoff and Goldsmith (2002) say it plainly, for every country in the world, there are both formal and informal governance systems, "co-existing side by side". This means that in addition to official bureaucracies and elections, informal practices such as patronage, clientelism, and social networks are always at play. Hence, meta-governance would recognize and aim to regulate, rather than ignore, informal governance systems.

Gupta (2012), Hull (2003), and Pokharel and Pradhan (2020) have explored various angles of governance in South Asia. Each considered the everyday realities of governance through various local bureaucracies or local governments. In Nepal, governance is formally hampered by inefficiency, politicization, and corruption. As a result of this informal context, many citizens have experienced that even routine public services like land registration, tax filing, business licensing, etc. are abysmally slow and opaque. Reports investigating public services consistently suggest that Nepalese seeking some of the simplest government services must make a choice between paying a bribe or waiting indefinitely. For example, a 2018 Nagarik survey placed citizen-observers in government offices and found that of the 715 visitors in 15 government offices in Kathmandu/Lalitpur, 504 said they were forced to pay a bribe to get their work done (Nepali Times, 2018). Glaring cases of corruption were highlighted in four of the Land Revenue Offices in Kathmandu where 140 of the 180 clients had to pay bribes (Nepali Times, 2018). This same article notes that a government official will casually admit that it will "hold" or "delay" files under "various pretenses" until a baksheesh is paid. The bureaucracy asks for "tips" (tea money, meal money, expedite fees), for services that citizens are legally entitled to, simply because they can.

Nepal’s tax system and administrative commissions show the same pattern of capture. One previous finance secretary asserts Nepali bureaucracies are effectively "one and the same" with political parties (Kathmandu Post 2017). Top jobs usually aren't given to most qualified people but to loyalists of people in power. Consequently, often state mechanisms that exist to facilitate tax collection become agencies of elite deals. For instance, unique bodies like the Tax Settlement Commission (TSC) that were meant to adjudicate disputes frequently grant phenomenal amounts in tax exemptions to connected firms (TSC is supposed to make disputes "just go away"). The TSC was once under investigation for allegedly granting tax exemptions of NPR 21 billion (Kathmandu Post, 2017) to people of political consequence. The rule of law is effectively gutted; bureaucratic processes are distorted into patronage.

The licensing and permitting arena also illustrate the bureaucratic quagmire in Nepal. An investigation into the Transport Management Office unveiled one jaw-dropping scheme: third-party middlemen were conspiring with officials to issue forged driving licenses and then convert the forged licenses into ‘real’ licenses. For instance, agents organized heavy-vehicle licenses by backdating applicant's documentation, asking between Rs 80,000–130,000 per instance (Yadav, 2021). Licenses for which no examinations were taken (there was also no record in the official database) were just ‘renewed’ to maintain some guise of validity (Yadav, 2021). Front-line workers and even medical examiners were, it is alleged, bribed or complicit. This is indicative of the different layers of the licensing process, one could bypass through informal pathways, or shortcuts, namely, the paperwork, the records, the physical, and the examinations.

The evidence shows failure of even basic state capacity. In Akhil Gupta's Red Tape, he argues that government processes can per produce injustice and sometimes death among the poor; that bureaucratic red tape is a systematic form of oppression. While the case of Nepal is slightly different- even if an official wanted to serve everyone equitably, the rules and corruption will often thwart even the best of intentions.

In Nepal’s political lexicon, afno manche (which translates to “one’s own person”) captures the informal patronage at work (Subedi, 2014). According to Brinkerhoff and Goldsmith, no society operates solely according to formal rules; citizens and officials must navigate an invisible and alternative matrix of customs, networks, and favors. In Nepal, this matrix is brazenly apparent. Everyone in Nepal understands that there is a mechanism for people to have their work done through a broker or middleman. Brokers or dalals, do not have an ongoing contractual relationship with clients, but they serve as the de facto channel to cut through the red tape.

Brokers replace formal meta-governance. Broker networks are the informal and hidden organization of access when official coordination fails. Citizens often say they have to deal with a dalal to get their work done. Nepali Times reports how Transparency International Nepal’s chair urged the removal of “middlemen from public offices so citizens are not deceived by them,” even as the government acknowledges that brokers hover around the Survey Department and Land Revenue Office (Nepali Times, 2018). This tension, where brokers are publicly sanctioned by the state and privately relied upon, shows how informal governance has been normalized.

These informal networks are, by their nature, not accountable. More precisely, decisions of consequence- who receives a service or who bypasses the queue, are made in private. Brinkerhoff and Goldsmith (2002) go so far as to say that informal systems are “indirectly inhibit participation, undermine the rule of law, and distort public service delivery” (p. 1). In Nepal, the informal frequently diminishes the formal. The result for citizens is that the state encounters them like a maze of personal exchanges, not as an impersonal bureaucracy. If you don’t have the afno manche or can’t afford a bribe, even routine requests or services remain unresolved.

Meta-governance theory would suggest that the government should not ignore these networks of corruption but should seek to steer or regulate these networks. In this context, meta-governance would merge bottom-up input from local communities with the top-down planning of a constitutional government; for example, possibly by formalizing community monitors, using non-governmental civil society institutions, or through technological innovations to avoid bribery. In practice, in Nepal, however, the opposite has generally occurred. While the State has created new agencies or commissions (e.g. the Tax Settlement Commission or ad-hoc committees), it has generally failed to modify underlying incentives. These new agencies and commissions then perform as venues for the existing political games. Rather than providing the State with steering networks of governance for the public good, the State has generally allowed patronage networks to steer the State.

Meta-governance requires transparency, accountability and alignment of formal rules with the needs of citizens. In Nepal today, such factors are largely absent. While the post-2015 federal reforms were intended to provide local accountability, many village offices operate in the same patronage as before. Unless Nepalese authorities can learn to govern their governors - public services will remain hostage to the whims of dalals and chiefs. If bureaucrats continue to outsource the "governance of governance" to brokers, changes that affect ordinary Nepalese subjects will largely be done through their afno manche, and they will continue to experience the state not as a neutral arbiter, but as a club, where the insider’s voice is the only one that counts.
