Complexity theory has become popular in the natural and social
sciences over the last few decades as a result of the advancements
in our understanding of the complexities in natural and social
phenomena. Concepts and methods of complexity theory have been
applied by scholars of public affairs in North America and Europe,
but a comprehensive framework for these applications is lacking. A
Complexity Theory for Public Policy proposes a conceptual synthesis
and sets a foundation for future developments and applications.
In this book, G ktu Mor l convincingly makes the case that
complexity theory can help us understand better the
self-organizational, emergent, and co-evolutionary characteristics
of complex policy systems. In doing so, he discuss the
epistemological implications of complexity theory and the methods
complexity researchers use, and those methods they could use. As
the complexity studies spread more around the world in the coming
decades, the contents of this book will become appealing to larger
audiences, particularly to scholars and graduate students in public
affairs. The unique combination of synthesis and explanation of
concepts and methods found in this book will serve as reference
frames for future works.
