Professor Kishore Mahbubani, Dean of the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore, will contribute a commentary for the April 2010 issue of Governance.  Commentaries are a new feature of the redesigned journal that will appear in January 2010.  Mahbubani, also a Professor in the Practice of Public Policy at the Lee Kuan Yew School, is most recently the author  The New Asian Hemisphere: The Irresistable Shift of Global Power to the East (PublicAffairs, 2009).

Governance’s new lead commentaries are short, unrefereed pieces designed to cultivate discussion on critical topics.  The first commentary, in the April 2010 issue, will be written by Paul Starr, Professor of Communications and Public Affairs at Princeton University.
