Description

Public Policy and the Public Interest by Routledge offers a unique perspective on the relationship between human nature and policy design. This book helps policy makers understand the fundamental needs of people and how they might respond to specific policy structures. By focusing on human nature, the text provides the tools necessary to anticipate and avoid unintended consequences in policy implementation. The book introduces a fresh way to think about the meaning of public interest. It builds on intellectual foundations ranging from J.S. Mill to more recent theories by Harsanyi and Rawls. While traditional economics often relies on the Hicksian criterion or the Kal-El criterion, this work provides a different approach to understanding how policy affects society. It is a valuable resource for anyone studying the intersection of human behavior, economics, and public administration.
