Putting into context' is a very common phrase - both in the social
sciences and beyond. But what exactly do we mean by this, and how
do we do it? In this book, leading scholars in public policy and
management tackle these issues. They show how ideas of context are
central to a range of theories and explanations and use an
international range of case studies to exemplify context-based
explanation. The book uncovers the complexity that lies behind an
apparently simple notion, and offers a variety of approaches to
decipher that complexity. Context is indeed a missing link, which
enables us to make sense of the vital relationship between the
general and the particular. Context in Public Policy and Management
will prove insightful to academics, as well as to advanced
undergraduate and postgraduate students in government, public
policy, public management, public administration and political
science. Contributors: P. Ahonen, E.M. Berman, M. Bevir, J.
