Sector Success ≠ Legitimacy “Everything in the town was as it had been – the army was in its barracks, the photographs of the President were everywhere, the steamer came up regularly from the capital. But men had lost or rejected the idea of an overseeing authority, and everything was as fluid as it had been at the beginning.” – V.S. Naipaul, A Bend in the River (1979)
Defining the 38G for Legitimacy • Organization: cellular (hive not web) and adaptive (context before sector) • Classifications: Generalists (mission aims) alongside specialists (mission sectors) • Training: Legitimacy training by scenario and sector (policies, policy instruments, and policy evaluation tools)
