Abstract

Argues that the profession of policy analysis is suffering from a crisis of confidence that is affecting public problem solvers in general. However, critical changes in US politics -- eg, a greater personalization, demands for perfection, an emphasis on passion -- are occurring, making such analysis more difficult. Welfare policy analysis provides an example of rational policy analysis, but recent analyses in this area have been treated as irrelevant in the public debate on welfare. The end of policy analysis is in sight. M. Pflum
