This visionary Research Handbook presents the state of the art in
research on policy design. By conceiving policy design both as a
theoretical and a methodological framework, it provides scholars
and practitioners with guidance on understanding policy problems
and devising accurate solutions. Chapters discuss the major
approaches to policy design as well as the challenges that confront
policy designers and academics interested in improving this
framework. More than 40 expert contributors operationalise the
policy design framework around different models of causation,
evaluation, instrumentation and intervention to explain and improve
policy outcomes. This framework sheds new light on the nature of
policy problems and the means to address these problems, while also
explaining if and how a policy fits into the broader social and
political environment. The Research Handbook considers not only the
process of designing, and the roles that individuals and
institutions play in the political process of revising and creating
new policies, but also the outcome of the designing process: policy
design as a plan for action. Providing a practical alternative to
the conventional theories of the policy process like the policy
cycle, this Research Handbook will be critical reading for scholars
and students of public policy, political theory and public
administration and management. It will also be beneficial for
policy makers interested in improving the ways in which they
formulate public policies.
