Centralisation | Definition, Reasons, Pros & Cons

Centralisation refers to a system of government or administration in which major decision making is centralized at the centre in the hands of central government officials or administrators. Major decisions are taken at the headquarters and sent down to the regional or branch offices for implementation.

Difference Between Centralisation and Decentralisation

The principles of centralization and decentralization are more or less two sides of the same coin. While centralization holds that it is possible to improve administrative effectiveness by concentrating decision-making in one coordinating body, decentralization, on the other hand, states that decision-making can only be enhanced by delegating decision-making to lower level governments of subordinate units.
