Recenzii

"More than a supplemental guide to Theories of the Policy Process: The book offers a fantastic overview and inspiring insights into gathering and analyzing data about policy processes. Thereby, the book not only provides the necessary tools for empirically-grounded research, but also for advancing theories of the policy process"
Florence Metz, University of Twente, Netherlands
"Methods of the Policy Process articulates best practices for applying policy process theories while emphasizing flexibility and creativity. It is an essential resource for scholars seeking to design and conduct rigorous, theory-driven research that better illuminates the complex dynamics of modern policymaking"
Elizabeth A. Koebele, University of Nevada, USA
"An eclectic methodological roadmap for new and experienced scholars. The volume edited by Christopher Weible and Samuel Workman presents a wide variety of research strategies, from different theoretical traditions in policy studies. It is an essential book that advances the discussion about methods and offers a major contribution to the global community of public policy academics"
Osmany Porto de Oliveira, Federal University of São Paulo, Brazil

Descriere

The increasingly global study of policy processes faces challenges with scholars applying theories in radically different national and cultural contexts. Questions frequently arise about how to conduct policy process research comparatively and among this global community of scholars. Methods of the Policy Process is the first book to remedy this situation, not by establishing an orthodoxy or imposing upon the policy process community a rigid way of conducting research, but instead, by allowing the leading researchers in the different theoretical traditions a space to share the means by which they put their research into action.
This edited volume serves as a companion volume and supplemental guide to the well-established Theories of the Policy Process, 4th Edition. Methods of the Policy Process acknowledges that growth and advancement in the study of the policy process is dependent not merely on conceptual and theoretical development, but also on developing and systematizing better methodological approaches to measurement and analysis. To maximize student engagement with the material, each chapter follows a similar framework: introduction of a given theory of the policy process, application of that theory (including best practices for research design, conceptualization, major data sources, data collection, and methodological approaches), critical assessment, future directions, and online resources (including datasets, survey instruments, and interview and coding protocols). While the structure and focus of each chapter varies slightly according to the theoretical tradition being discussed, each chapter's central aim is to prepare readers to confidently undertake common methodological strategies themselves.
Methods of the Policy Process is especially beneficial to people new to the field, including students enrolled in policy process courses, as well as those without access to formal training. For scholars experienced in applying theories, this edited volume is a helpful reference to clarify best practices in research methods.
