Description

Policy Dynamics explores how governmental policies and institutions change over time in response to new political agendas and crises. Using extensive data spanning half a century, this book examines the evolution of the federal government and its responses to challenges. The research draws on public policy issues in the United States, tracing policies, legislation, media attention, and governmental decisions over time and across institutions. Chapters analyze specific policy areas, such as healthcare, national security, and immigration, while others focus on institutional questions like congressional procedures and agendas. This book presents a radical vision of how the federal government adapts to new challenges and provides research tools for critiquing or extending that vision.
