Political discourse in much of the world remains mired in
simplistic ideological dichotomies of market fundamentalism for
efficiency versus substantial socialism for equity. Contemporary
public policy design is far more sophisticated. It blends market,
government and community tools to simultaneously achieve both
equity and efficiency. Unlike in the twentieth century, this design
is increasingly grounded in a deep evidence base derived by way of
rigorous empirical techniques. A new paradigm is emerging: hybrid
policies. This volume provides a thorough introduction to this
technical side of public policy analysis and development. It
demonstrates that it is possible to go beyond ideology, and find
there some powerful answers to our most pressing problems. An
international team of experts, many of whom have experience with
the design or implementation of hybrid policies, helps cover the
behavioural, institutional and regulatory theories that inform the
choice of policy objectives and lead the initial conception of
solutions. They explain the reasons why we need evidence-based
public policy and the state-of-the-art empirical techniques
involved in its development. And they analyse a range of in-depth
case studies from industrial relations to health care to illustrate
how hybrids can intermingle the strengths of governments, markets
and the community to combat the weaknesses of each and arrive at
bipartisan outcomes. Hybrid Public Policy Innovations is geared to
scholars and practitioners of public policy administration and
management who desire to understand the analytical reasons why
policies are designed the way they are, and the purpose of
evidence-gathering frameworks attached to policies at
implementation.
