Definition(s)

  • The term quango, an acronym for quasi-autonomous nongovernmental organization, has come into use as a label for a wide range of public bodies and extragovernmental organizations that are responsible for developing, managing, and delivering public policy under largely appointed, rather than elected, governing boards. The definition of quango has been the subject of considerable dispute. [Source: Encyclopedia of Governance; Quango]
