Creating and Implementing Public Policy - Cross-sectoral debates (Paperback): Gemma Carey, Kathy Landvogt, Jo Barraket Creating and Implementing Public Policy - Cross-sectoral debates (Paperback)
Gemma Carey, Kathy Landvogt, Jo Barraket
R1,560 Discovery Miles 15 600 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

In order to address major social policy problems, governments need to break down sectoral barriers and create better working relationships between practitioners, policymakers and researchers. Currently, major blockages exist, and stereotypes abound. Academics are seen as out-of-touch and unresponsive, policymakers are perceived to be justifying policy decisions, and the community sector seeks more funding without demonstrating efficacy. These stereotypes are born out of a lack of understanding of the work and practices that exist across these three sectors. Drawing on ground-breaking research and partnerships, with contributions from senior public servants, this book explores the competing demands of different actors involved in policy change. It challenges current debates, assumptions and reflects a unique diversity of experiences. Combined with differing theoretical perspectives, it provides a uniquely practical insight for those seeking to influence public policy. This innovative text provides essential reading for community sector practitioners, academics and advanced level students in public policy, social policy and public administration, as well as for public service professionals.
