Opis

This new volume in the International Library of Policy Analysis series is the first comprehensive overview of policy analysis in the Czech Republic and the first of any postcommunist Central or Eastern European region. As such, it offers a unique picture of policy analysis that differs profoundly from prevailing Western versions. Written by experts in the field, including scholars and policy makers, the book outlines the historical development of policy analysis in the region, identifies its role in education and research, and examines its styles and methods."
