Synopsis
This book investigates policy as a concept in use - an idea that both practitioners and outside observers use to make sense of public life, and to participate effectively in it. It is concerned to analyze the way that the policy process works rather than to describe particular sorts of policy, and it does this by addressing the core questions: what do we mean by policy? who makes it? where is it made? what is it for? how does it relate to "politics" or "management"? what is it that policy workers do? The book will appeal to people interested in the place of policy in the way we are governed, as well as to those who are concerned with questions like the environment, regional development, or social policy, and want to understand how policy in these areas is actually made.

Condition: Como nuevo. : Este libro investiga la política como un concepto en uso, una idea que tanto los profesionales como los observadores externos utilizan para dar sentido a la vida pública y participar eficazmente en ella. Se centra en analizar cómo funciona el proceso político en lugar de describir tipos particulares de política, y lo hace abordando las preguntas centrales: ¿qué entendemos por política? ¿quién la hace? ¿dónde se hace? ¿para qué sirve? ¿cómo se relaciona con la "política" o la "gestión"? ¿qué hacen los trabajadores de la política? El libro atraerá a las personas interesadas en el lugar de la política en la forma en que somos gobernados, así como a aquellos que se preocupan por cuestiones como el medio ambiente, el desarrollo regional o la política social, y quieren entender cómo se hace realmente la política en estas áreas.
