Offering the widest breadth of policy issue coverage on the market,
the sixth edition of this well-regarded text covers events through
the 2016 elections and beyond. Though the content has been
extensively and thoughtfully revised and updated, the sixth edition
maintains its clear approach, without an overreliance on policy
theory, and popular threefold structure: First, it introduces
readers to the American approach to public policy making as it has
been shaped by our political institutions, changing circumstances,
and ideology. Second, it surveys all of the major policy areas from
foreign policy to health care policy to environmental policy, and
does so with well-selected illustrations, case studies, terms, and
study questions. Third, it provides readers with analytical tools
and frameworks to examine current problems and be able to
understand and critique proposed public policy solutions. New to
the sixth edition is an exploration of: The Affordable Care Act and
its implementation, controversies, and impact The American economy
since the end of the Great Recession, trade policy, and economic
equality issues Foreign policy including relations with Russia,
China, and Iran, as well as the civil war in Syria, the continuing
conflicts in Iraq, and the challenge of ISIS The US Criminal
Justice system and its incarceration challenges as well as issues
of minorities, police, and crime. This new edition includes, for
the first time, a test bank with multiple choice, short answer, and
discussion/essay questions as well as an instructor's manual.
Public Policy in the United States, 6e is an ideal undergraduate
text for introductory courses on American Public Policy and
Politics, and can be used as supplementary reading in undergraduate
courses on policy process, policy analysis, and American
government.
