This Handbook covers the accounts, by practitioners and observers,
of the ways in which policy is formed around problems, how these
problems are recognized and understood, and how diverse
participants come to be involved in addressing them. H.K. Colebatch
and Robert Hoppe draw together a range of original contributions
from experts in the field to illuminate the ways in which policies
are formed and how they shape the process of governing. The
Handbook on Policy, Process and Governing covers not only the
activities of government, but also the contributions of other
stakeholders, and the ways in which a wide range of participants
contribute to the formation of public policy. It explores the
tensions involved in the policy process between: innovative choice
and stable practice, authoritative decision and negotiated order,
and agreed activity and announced goals. The scholar's focus on the
analysis of activity and the practitioner's interest in the
achievement of outcomes are brought together in this timely book,
making it a valuable read for public policy scholars and
practitioners alike. Contributors include: K.P.R. Bartels, V.
