THE ASSUMPTIONS OF POLICY ANALYSIS
In: Policy studies journal: the journal of the Policy Studies Organization, Band 9, Heft 4, S. 552-558
Abstract
ABSTRACTThe preconditions of policy making are a concern in a human mind about some situation, actual or hypothetical, which is perceived as important and the conceived possibility that human action could make it better. Perceptions of the situation and of its origins and of the scope if any for acting on it and the actions conceived as available vary immensely with the culture of the society involved; and they change with time. This theme is illustrated by a brief summary of British political and cultural responses to poverty and to unemployment in the last hundred years.
