Editing Developing country (section)

=== Poor governance ===
Many developing countries are considered flawed democracies or authoritarian regimes by [[democracy indices]] such as the [[V-Dem Democracy indices]] and [[Democracy Index|Democracy Index (The Economist)]]. Following decolonization and independence, elites have often had [[Oligarchy|oligarchic]] control of the government.{{citation needed|date=July 2019}}

The establishment of a healthy democratic state has often been challenged by widespread [[corruption]] and [[nepotism]] and a low confidence and participation in democratic process. [[Political instability]] and [[political corruption]] are common problems.<ref>{{cite web|last=Williams|first=Jeremy|date=1 July 2007|title=Political factors that affect development|url=https://earthbound.report/2007/07/01/political-factors-that-affect-development/|access-date=20 June 2020|archive-date=21 June 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200621060902/https://earthbound.report/2007/07/01/political-factors-that-affect-development/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name="ReferenceA">Edwards, S. "Trade Orientation, Distortions and Growth In Developing Countries." (n.d.): n. pag. 1–37</ref> To fully reach the goal of a low level of corruption, developing countries are usually using special steps for different establishments inside their territories, such as:

* Development or creation of a fair public administration system that is not partially based on corruption and is entirely based on the values and laws of the country
* Better investigation towards the sources of the corruption and probable causes of that particular action
* Publicly informing the residents about the source of corruption and negative influence on the country's economy
* Regulation of the official positions of an individual to not be the source of abuse for corruption.
* Creation of special laws dedicated to the corruption itself for specific establishments<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.gov.am/files/docs/74.pdf |title=Republic of Armenia Anti-Corruption strategy and Implementation Action Plan |date=2003 |publisher=Republic of Armenia |access-date=16 February 2022 |archive-date=31 May 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110531195758/http://www.gov.am/files/docs/74.pdf |url-status=live }}</ref>
