Märksõnad:
Policy Analysis in the United States gathers a group of original contributions by scholars and leading practitioners of public policy analysis. Originating in the United States, the field of public policy analysis has affected nations around the world and been enhanced by contributions of scholars and practitioners in other regions, but it remains most highly developed and practiced in education and government here. This volume explores the nature of policy analysis in different sectors and at different levels of government, as well as by nongovernmental actors, such as unions, businesses, NGOs, and the media.

Arvustused

"This collection offers a unique and valuable set of perspectives on the history of policy analysis, changes in the field over recent decades, and current challenges facing practitioners." Michael E. Kraft, Emeritus Professor, University of Wisconsin-Green Bay
