Setting the agenda on agenda setting, this Handbook explores how
and why private matters become public issues and occasionally
government priorities. It provides a comprehensive overview and
analysis of the perspectives, individuals, and institutions
involved in setting the government's agenda at sub-national,
national, and international levels. Drawing on contributions from
leading academics across the world, this handbook is split into
five distinct parts. Part one sets public policy agenda setting in
its historical context, devoting chapters to more in-depth studies
of the main individual scholars and their works. Part two offers an
extensive examination of the theoretical development, while part
three provides a comprehensive look at the various institutional
dimensions. Part four reviews the literature on sub-national,
national and international governance levels, and finally part five
offers innovative coverage on agenda setting during crises. The
first of its kind, this Handbook will be the definitive reference
tool in public policy agenda setting for scholars, students, and
practitioners in political science, public policy, public
administration, and mass communication. Contributors include: F.R.
