Institutions and Governance in Comparative Policy Analysis Studies: Volume Two: Classics of Comparative Policy Analysis

Editat de Iris Geva-May, B. Guy Peters, Joselyn Muhleisen
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 dec 2019
Volume Two of the Classics of Comparative Policy Analysis, contains chapters concerned with "Institutions and Governance in Comparative Policy Analysis Studies". They highlight that at the core of any policy making, the different institutions and modes of governance have a significant effect. Questions about the impact of governance have become more central to comparative policy analysis as scholars have given more attention to globalization, organizational cultural differences, policy learning, transfer, and diffusion. The chapters included in this volume tackle the nature of policies and policy analytic practices within and across organizations, actors and institutions as well as among governance modes. The chapters demonstrate the ways in which institutions and governance in the public and private sectors, shape policies, and conversely, how policy choices can shape the institutions associated with them. Other chapters focus on how the diffusion of knowledge and lesson drawing address challenges of policy making, cooperation and harmonization.
"Institutions and Governance in Comparative Policy Analysis Studies" will be of great interest to scholars and learners of public policy and social sciences, as well as to practitioners considering what can be reliably contextualized, learned, facilitated or avoided given their own institutional or governance systems.
The chapters were originally published as articles in the Journal of Comparative Policy Analysis which in the last two decades has pioneered the development of comparative public policy. The volume is part of a four-volume series, the Classics of Comparative Policy Analysis including Theories and Methods, Institutions and Governance, Regional Comparisons, and Policy Sectors. Each volume also showcases a new chapter comparing interrelated domains of study with comparative public policy: political science, public administration, governance and policy design, authored by JCPA co-editors Giliberto Capano, Iris Geva-May, Michael Howlett, Leslie Pal and B. Guy Peters.

Recenzii

"It is evident throughout the four volumes that the comparative perspective is producing the kinds of intellectual capital that may be of unique value in policy formulation and design. Lesson drawing is increasingly appropriate in an era of worldwide reinventing of governance. Through the publication of this series, and through papers accepted for publication in future volumes of the JCPA, the journal and the Classics of Comparative Policy Analysis will continue to be a pilot light for imaginative and pathbreaking research that sustains the momentum of the development of comparative policy studies."Laurence E. Lynn, Jr., Sydney Stein, Jr. Professor of Pubic Management Emeritus, The University of Chicago, USA

"Merriam Webster’s definition of "classic" provides the reader of the Classics of Comparative Policy Analysis Series with a challenging situation. The terms used in the definition are traditional, enduring, classical, authentic, authoritative and typical. This series meets all these definitions. But, as the pages of the four volumes unfold, it also offers a sense of the relevance in responding to the turbulence of the world in which we live as well as of the future potential of this complex and ever-changing field."
Beryl A. Radin, Georgetown University, Washington DC., Former President of the Association of Public Policy and Management (APPAM)
