Applying the Multiple Streams Framework (MSF) to a global range of
case studies, this pioneering Modern Guide addresses how
policymakers decide what issues to attend to and which choices to
make or implement. In doing so it outlines that, far from being the
exception, ambiguity and timing are integral parts of every
comparative explanation of the policy process. Considering the MSF
at the theoretical level, contributors assess the assumptions,
structure and logic of the framework before examining the scope of
reforms, multilevel influence and interaction, coupling as a
process, and the motives of policy entrepreneurs. Using a diverse
array of cases from around the world at sub-national, national, and
international levels of governance, chapters apply the framework to
such diverse topics as climate policy in Europe, soil pollution
laws in China, pandemic management in Turkey and Bolsonaro’s gun
liberalization agenda in Brazil. Ultimately, the Modern Guide
demonstrates that public policy is a process replete with bias,
language and symbols among interacting policy actors who generate
conflicting messages in staged settings of political power.
Situating the framework within broader debates of the policy
process, this innovative Modern Guide will be vital to students and
scholars of political science, public policy, and public
administration and management. With empirical practical
applications which advance the MSF, it will also be of use to
policymakers globally.
This book furthers the ongoing theoretical development of the
multiple streams framework, assessing its applicability to European
Union (EU) policy-making processes. It systematically defines and
identifies functional equivalents for all of the framework's core
concepts at the EU level and extends the framework in order to
explain agenda-setting and decision-making. Furthermore, the book
derives a set of explicit hypotheses to empirically assess the
extent to which the (modified) framework is able to explain timing,
agenda prominence, and policy change (or a lack thereof) for the EU
natural gas directives passed in 1998, 2003, and 2009. The analysis
documents that the framework is well-suited to explain the EU
policy process in general and reveals where additional theoretical
refinements are required.
