Contrary to stereotype, democratic governments are not so bad at what they do. What can we learn about the craft and politics of policy design and policy implementation from instances of public policy success? Systematically distinguishing between program, process, political success as wel as endurance of success over time, this volume presents fifteen in-depth case studies of policy successes from around the world. Each case study contains a detailed narrative of the policy processes and assesses the extent to which the policies pursued can be regarded as successful. It offers a unique tool for researchers, teachers and students to apply theories of policy design, policymaking, and implementation to.
"With so much media and political criticism of their shortcomings and failures, it is easy to overlook the fact that many governments work pretty well much of the time. Great Policy Successes turns the spotlight on instances of public policy that are remarkably successful. It develops a framework for identifying and assessing policy successes, paying attention not just to their programmatic outcomes but also to the quality of the processes by which policies are designed and delivered, the level of support and legitimacy they attain, and the extent to which successful performance endures over time. The bulk of the book is then devoted to 15 detailed case studies of striking policy successes from around the world, including Singapore's public health system, Copenhagen and Melbourne's rise from stilted backwaters to the highly liveable and dynamic urban centres they are today, Brazil's Bolsa Familia poverty relief scheme, the US's GI Bill, and Germany's breakthrough labour market reforms of the 2000s. Each case is set in context, its main actors are introduced, key events and decisions are described, the assessment framework is applied to gauge the nature and level of its success, key contributing factors to success are identified, and potential lessons and future challenges are identified. Purposefully avoiding the kind of heavy theorizing that characterizes many accounts of public policy processes, each case is written in an accessible and narrative style ideally suited for classroom use in conjunction with mainstream textbooks on public policy design, implementation, and evaluation.

Remarks by Sir John Daniel, Commonwealth of Learning at the ceremony to launch preparations for the, 6th Pan-Commonwealth Forum on Open Learning, Chennai, India, 10 October 2009 // The title we have chosen for PCF6 is Access and Success in Learning: Global Development Perspectives. We want to stress the importance of successful learning. We know now that with technology we can take learning to scale. We also know from examples that it is possible to take learning to scale with high quality. What we must do is achieve quality at scale consistently in the most cost-effective manner. That is where the global exchange of experience is invaluable. // The programme of PCF6, which will be developed under the able leadership of Dr Ramanujam, will aim for an integrated blend of themes and sessions, some originating in COL's own programme of work, some in the papers submitted for presentation. This blend should not be difficult to achieve because COL's programme of work for 2009-2012 was developed in the light of Commonwealth needs, contemporary trends, and government priorities – all in a perspective of global development.

While there are many studies concerning different aspects of migrants' occupational trajectories, little attention has been dedicated to migrants' own views on career success. In this paper, drawing on qualitative interviews with Polish migrants, we aim to bridge this gap in migration studies by examining how the migrants themselves understand and experience the concept of career success. We also took into consideration factors contributing to migrants' occupational success, with a particular focus on the role of migration in their occupational biographies.
Our analysis shows that interviewees define success in terms of subjective and objective criteria, focusing on immaterial rewards. Most of the migrants who participated in the study were unsure if they had already achieved career success. Among those who did, internal factors connected with a person's character were mostly pointed out as contributing to career success. Despite the fact that work was the primary motivation for migration for a significant part of our sample, the results of the migration on career and chances of achieving success were varied.
The Air Force currently funds projects chartered with studying and developing e-Procurement systems. Through review and analysis of various e-Procurement projects, factors attributing to successful implementation of e-Procurement systems will be deduced and provided as a useful guide for federal agencies initiating e-Procurement projects. By identifying critical success factors this research should: 1) improve preimplementation planning, 2) improve spend decisions, and 3) decrease implementation time by eliminating unnecessary steps. This research utilized the current literature to identify specific factors important in the e-Procurement implementation process. Once the factors were determined, a survey was developed to measure the factors in organizations with an e-Procurement system. All fifty state governments were contacted to determine if they had implemented e-Procurement systems and, if they responded affirmatively, were surveyed regarding what they have identified as the factors most instrumental in their e-Procurement implementation. The survey looked specifically at six key areas of e-Procurement implementation: 1) technology, 2) management, 3) processes, 4) suppliers, 5) budget, and 6) benefits. Each organization's tangible and intangible benefits were assessed to further substantiate the value organizations should be getting from e-Procurement.

A contribution to a special journal section marking the reprinting of Robert Wade's Governing the Market: Economic Theory and the Role of Government in East Asian Industrialization (2004 [1990]) notes that its core assertions remain compelling & have obtained new urgency in light of 15 years of politicoeconomic developments. Wade's challenge to the ideological predispositions of Western economic analysts of the causes for the 1997/98 Asian financial crisis, particularly the World Bank's (1993) study, is touched on. While agreeing with Wade in general, some issues are seen to arise with respect to the continued viability & transferability of the East Asian economic model. Three related problems are then considered to explore the possibility that East Asian success has generated its own antitheses: (1) US application of power to deregulate catch-up economies & overcome impediments to the wider globalist agenda that privileges multinational corporations headquartered in the more economically advanced states; (2) the temporality of the East Asian developmental model; & (3) increased economic interactions across East Asia. It is concluded that emulators of the East Asian model will not likely enjoy the same international conditions present when the model was most successful thanks to US-led shifts in the economic climate for development; the East Asian economies are no longer operating out of the same model, while the People's Republic of China & Southeast Asia are perhaps not imitating it as often implied; & regional interconnectedness challenges the continued applicability of the national insularity that characterized the East Asian model. 12 References.
