The field called policy analysis focused originally on the
formulation of new policies and was structured to give advice to
those in the top reaches of government agencies. Within several
decades the field moved beyond the formulation stage of the policy
process (creating new policies) to agenda setting, implementation,
and evaluation of existing policies. New skill sets emerged and
staff were found in many parts of the policy world. Despite these
changes, there has been little attention paid to the possible
shifts in the relationship between analysts and clients, and
students of policy analysis often enter the world of work with
little exposure to the situations they might face. Policy Analysis
in the Twenty-First Century is designed to familiarize students
with the diversity of experiences that they can expect to face in
their practitioner role. Author Beryl Radin bases the discussion on
case studies that illustrate realities in the current policy
analysis environment. Set in very different environments (including
both US and international settings), the players in the cases
illustrate three different stages of a career (beginning the
career, mid-career, and people at the end of their career). The
cases are based on realistic situations and demonstrate the
volatility and complexity of the decision environments. At the same
time, they provide attention to the analysts' personal values and
career goals. This book will be required reading for faculty and
masters level students in both public management and policy
analysis classes. It may also be used in executive programs.
