با اطلاعات مناسب، میتوانیم خطمشیهای عمومی را توسعه
دهیم که بهتر عمل میکنند.
اغلب، کتابهای درسی خطمشی عمومی، پایهای اساسی را در فرآیند
خطمشی ارائه میکنند بدون اینکه از یکپارچهسازی استفاده کنند.
استفاده از تحلیل سیاست مایکل ای. کرافت و اسکات آر. فورلونگ
روش متفاوتی را اتخاذ می کنند.
سیاست عمومی: سیاست، تجزیه و تحلیل، و جایگزینها،
نسخه هفتم به دانشآموزان کمک میکند بفهمند
که چگونه و چرا از تحلیل خطمشی برای ارزیابی جایگزینهای
خطمشی استفاده میشود. متن آنها را تشویق میکند که نه تنها
مفروضات تحلیلگر سیاست را زیر سوال ببرند، بلکه نحوه استفاده
از این استراتژیها را در حمایت از استدلالهای سیاسی نیز تشخیص
دهند. نویسندگان یک رویکرد ارزیابی برای سیاست را برای تشویق
تفکر انتقادی و خلاق در مورد موضوعاتی از مراقبت های بهداشتی
گرفته تا تغییرات آب و هوایی معرفی کرده و به طور کامل ادغام می
کنند. از بررسی مختصر نهادها، بازیگران سیاست، و مدلهای نظری
اصلی تا بحث در مورد ماهیت تحلیل خط مشی و عملکرد آن، کرافت و
فورلونگ به دانشآموزان نشان میدهند که چگونه معیارهای ارزیابی
را در شش حوزه اصلی سیاست به کار گیرند. دانشآموزان ابزارهای
تحلیلی مورد نیاز خود را برای درک اینکه انگیزههای بازیگران
سیاست - چه در داخل و چه خارج از دولت - بر یک برنامه سیاست
پیچیده و در عین حال قابل درک تأثیر میگذارند.
With the right information, we can develop public
policies that work better.
All too often, public policy textbooks offer a basic
grounding in the policy process without the benefit of
integrating the use of policy analysis. Michael E. Kraft and
Scott R. Furlong take a different tack.
Public Policy: Politics, Analysis, and Alternatives,
Seventh Edition helps students understand
how and why policy analysis is used to assess policy
alternatives. The text encourages them to not only question
the assumptions of policy analyst, but also recognize how
these strategies are used in the support of political
arguments. The authors introduce and fully integrate an
evaluative approach to policy to encourage critical and
creative thinking on issues ranging from health care to
climate change. From a concise review of institutions, policy
actors, and major theoretical models to a discussion of the
nature of policy analysis and its practice, Kraft and Furlong
show students how to employ evaluative criteria in six
substantive policy areas. Students come away with the
analytic tools they need to understand that the motivations
of policy actors―both within and outside of
government―influence a complex yet comprehensible policy
agenda.
