Description
Public Policy: A New Introduction by Christoph Knill and Jale Tosun provides a comprehensive guide to understanding public policy and its role in shaping society. This fully revised second edition brings together analysis of classic works with the latest developments in the field, offering practical insights into the policy cycle and process. The book explores key questions about public policy, including who participates in making and implementing it, how it changes over time, and its connection to political economy and climate change. Drawing on examples from around the world, the authors offer a nuanced understanding of public policy, covering institutions, actors, implementation, evaluation, and governance. Suitable for undergraduate or postgraduate students studying public policy, as well as those interested in politics, public management, and administration, this textbook provides essential guidance on the subject. The new edition includes revised guidance on policy analysis, expanded discussion of climate policy and politics, and consideration of recent global trends such as Brexit and populism.
