Making Governance Work

Produktbeschreibung

Polarization is widely diagnosed as a major cause in the decline of evidence-based policy making and public engagement-based styles of policy making.

Public Policy, Governance and Polarization seeks to provide a theoretical foundation for scholars and policy makers who need to understand the powerful and often disruptive forces that have arisen in Europe and North America over the past decade.

Researchers, and future policymakers in fields such as public administration, public management and public policy need to that understand how institutional design, corporatist interest group systems and different pedagogical approaches may help them understand and work beyond policy polarization.
