Synopsis

Rethinking Public Policy-Making offers a critical review of public policies at the end of the twentieth century. The book examines the relations between individual responsibility and institutional policy, between personal independence and social interdependence. Throughout, the contributors illustrate the ways in which public policy requires decisions of an ethical nature - on conduct of societies, on the relations between present and future generations, on international relations, and on the future of the world environment.
