Arenas of Power represents the first time that Theodore J. Lowi's
model of policy analysis has been presented together with key
applications and case studies drawn from his long history of
scholarship-all in one place. Lowi's signature four-fold typology
is shown as conceived and then as extended to include that most
relevant of contemporary phenomena-"social regulatory policy." As
Lowi says, when radicals add morality to the goals of public
policy, the system may be turned on its head. This volume shows the
evolution of the public policy arena over more than forty years of
writing and thinking and presents some never before published
material including helpful analytical introductions. The book
concludes as Lowi looks ahead to an internationalizing U.S.
political economy and the need for a global political science.
This title, originally published in 1981, explores the difficult,
and at times volatile, relationship between public choice and rural
development in developing countries. The book is organised into
three major sections: the first section examines important general
themes, the second describes how public choice and rural
development intertwine in some areas of concern to aid donors, and
finally, the third section revisits the major themes discussed in
the book and offers further understanding to the critical questions
and problems at hand. It is a valuable resource for students
interested in environmental studies and development studies.
