The Public Policy Process Zusammenfassung

The Public Policy Process Michael Hill (University of Newcastle, UK)

The Public Policy Process is essential reading for anyone trying to understand the process by which public policy is made. Explaining clearly the importance of the relationship between theoretical and practical aspects of policy-making, the book gives a thorough overview of the people and organisations involved in the process.

Fully revised and updated for a 7th edition, The Public Policy Process provides:

  • Clear exploration, using many illustrations, of how policy is made and implemented.
  • A new chapter on comparative theory and methods.
  • New material on studying advocacy coalitions, policy changes, governance, and evaluation.
  • More European and international examples.

This edition appears at a time when its concern to emphasise the complex implications of modern governance, and the way in which the ultimate outcome of a new policy initiative will depend on policy formulation and implementation processes, is particularly relevant to the UK governments efforts to leave the European Union.

The book is a great source of knowledge and inspiration that is certain to be of interest to academics and practitioners and all those interested in understanding the policy process." - Daniel Nohrstedt, Uppsala University, Sweden.

"This book presents an excellent contribution to the study of the policy process. Michael Hill and Frederic Varone performed an invaluable service by authoring this new edition of the very successful textbook. It is a "must read" for students and researchers interested in policy theories ant their application to various aspects of the policy process." - Sabine Kuhlmann, University of Potsdam, Germany.

"In the 7th Edition of The Public Policy Process, Hill and Varone have transformed what has been one of the best introductory books on policy process research into one that is an even better. In doing so, they recognize and describe the complexities inherent in policy processes without reverting to overly simplified and distorted depictions. Based on crisp conceptualizations and comprehensive theoretical foundations, this book offers a firm foundation for new students and experienced scholars for understanding, studying, and influencing policy processes." - Chris Weible, School of Public Affairs, University of Colorado Denver, USA.
