Description
This comprehensive textbook provides an in-depth analysis of public policies across different countries, combining conceptual frameworks with empirical analysis. The second edition places particular emphasis on the international contexts that shape decision-making, exploring bilateral, multilateral, and transnational aspects of policy-making.
With a focus on enabling students to draw their own comparisons, this textbook is ideal for introductory modules on public policy, public management, and public administration, as well as courses taking a comparative approach to specific policy areas like welfare, health, and education. The new edition features improved chapter structure, updated quantitative and descriptive data, and increased attention to contemporary policy issues such as migration, climate change, and security.
