解説
Quality Infrastructure (QI), encompassing standardization, metrology, accreditation, conformity assessment, and market surveillance, has emerged as one of the most powerful yet underrecognized pillars of modern governance. This book reframes QI not as a narrow technical function, but as a strategic governance system essential for regulatory effectiveness, trade integration, innovation, and sustainable development.
The Architecture of Quality Infrastructure: Standardization, Governance, and Sustainable Development offers a comprehensive, theoretically grounded, and practice-oriented framework for understanding, designing, and governing national QI systems. Drawing on ISO principles, the WTO Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade, World Bank diagnostic methodologies, and the QI4SD Index, the book delivers a clear roadmap for strengthening institutional capacity and aligning QI with national development priorities.
Structured across twelve interconnected chapters, the book progresses from historical foundations and governance principles through institutional design, operational management, conformity assessment, strategic planning, and diagnostic tools, culminating in a forward-looking analysis of QI's role in climate action and digital transformation.
This book is essential reading for policymakers, National Standards Bodies, regulators, development partners, and researchers. It equips current and future QI leaders with the analytical and strategic tools needed to harness standards as powerful instruments of institutional transformation, economic resilience, and inclusive sustainable development.
