Description

Develop a deeper understanding of how effective public policies are created and assessed. While many textbooks provide only a basic overview of the policy process, Public Policy: Politics, Analysis, and Alternatives by Michael E. Kraft and Scott R. Furlong offers a more integrated approach by connecting policy theory with practical analysis. This Seventh Edition helps students learn how and why policy analysis is used to evaluate different policy alternatives. Instead of just accepting data at face value, readers are encouraged to question the assumptions made by analysts. The text provides a clear look at how various strategies are used to support political goals and policy decisions. This book is an essential resource for those looking to master the connection between political processes and the analytical tools used to shape our society.
