How to Do Public Policy offers a guide to students and
practitioners on how to improve problem-solving with policies in a
political world. It integrates insights from applied policy
analysis and studies of the policy process to develop a framework
that conceives policy-making as structured by two spheres of action
- the 'engine room' of specialists and experts in government
agencies, NGOs, research organizations etc., on the one hand, and
the political 'superstructure' of politicians, key public
stakeholders and the public, on the other hand. Understanding the
different logics of the engine room and the superstructure is key
for successful policy-making. The dual structure of policy-making
provides a perspective on policy-analysis (interactive policy
analysis) and policy-making (actor-centred policy-making) that
moves from the focus on individual and specific measures, towards
understanding and shaping the relation and interaction between
policy interventions, the institutional context and the
stakeholders involved or affected. Part I of the book presents the
basic analytical concepts needed to understand the policy process
and the structures and dynamics involved in it, as well as to
understand how and why actors behave the way they do-and how to
engage with different types of actors. Part II moves further into
the nuts and bolts of policy-making, including policy design,
implementation, and evaluation. Part III introduces and explores
three key aspects of the capacity to make good policies: engagement
with stakeholders, the process of policy coordination in a context
of interdependence, and the role of institutions.
