Public Policy Praxis / 4th edition

A Case Approach for Understanding Policy and Analysis

2020 || Paperback || Randy Clemons e.a. || Taylor & Francis

Public administration and policy analysis education have long emphasized tidiness, stages, and rationality, but practitioners frequently must deal with a world where objectivity is buffeted by, repressed by, and sometimes defeated by value conflict.

Public Policy Praxis, now in a thoroughly revised fourth edition, uniquely equips students to better grapple with ambiguity and complexity.

By emphasizing mixed methodologies, the reader is encouraged, through the use of a wide variety of policy cases, to develop a workable and practical model of applied policy analysis. Students are given the opportunity to try out these globally applicable analytical models and tools in varied case settings (e.g., county, city, federal, international, plus urban and rural) while facing wide-ranging topics (starving farmers and the red panda in Nepal, e-cigarettes, GMOs, the gig economy, and opioid abuse) that capture the diversity and reality of public policy analysis and the intergovernmental and complex nature of politics. The fourth edition expands upon its thorough exploration of specific tools of policy analysis, such as stakeholder mapping, content analysis, group facilitation, narrative analysis, cost-benefit analysis, futuring, and survey analysis...

De ravage van tien jaar Rutte

2020 || Paperback || Thierry Baudet e.a. || Forum Uitgevers

De afgelopen tien jaar is roofbouw gepleegd op ons land. De verschillende coalities van VVD, CDA, PvdA, D66 en ChristenUnie waaraan Mark Rutte leiding gaf kozen voor records aan immigratie, honderden miljarden aan 'klimaatbeleid' en steeds maar meer macht voor de EU. De lasten stegen naar ongekende hoogtes en de publieke sector werd verwaarloosd. Over de hele linie viel ons land ten prooi aan een duizelingwekkend aftakelingsproces: ziekenhuisbedden werden wegbezuinigd, de thuiszorg werd uitge...
