Opis

A response to myriad crises of public policy, this important and original book contributes to a growing debate, arguing that traditional technocratic ways of designing policy are inadequate to cope with increasingly complex challenges. Drawing on twelve compelling international contributions from practitioners, policy makers, activists, and actively engaged academics, "Designing Public Policy for Co-production" uses ideas of power to explore how genuine democratic involvement in the policy process from outside the political elite can shape society for the better. An indispensable resource for researchers and students of public policy, public administration, sociology, and politics, this book offers profound insight into why and how to generate change in policy processes, arguing for increased experimentation in policy design.
