Policy Analysis in Japan: International Library of Policy Analysis
Editat de Yuiko Adachi, Sukehiro Hosono, Jun Iioen Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 ian 2015
In this new installment in Policy Press’s successful International Library of Policy Analysis series, Japanese scholars offer for the first time a detailed examination of the theory and practice of policy analysis systems in Japan. Together they make expert assessments of the extent to which the Japanese government has provided key policy actors with evidence-informed policy options and, thereby, improved the likelihood of better policies being adopted and implemented. Policy Analysis in Japan also assesses Japan’s future policy directions, allowing policy researchers and practitioners to draw a number of lessons from the Japanese experience. Featuring empirical case studies to aid teaching and further research, this collection will be a valuable resource for students, academics, and policy makers.

Recenzii
“Ministries with professional bureaucracies and dedicated think tanks undoubtedly contributed to Japanese postwar development. The distinguished editors of this volume make a strong case that Japanese public policy would now benefit from both increased policy analysis capability within the ministries and greater participation from policy analysts in the broader society.”
“This book of essays on Japan is an especially important contribution to the study of comparative policy analysis, allowing policy scholars to understand the evolution of the field in Japan, but also to focus on the ways in which policy knowledge and practices travel.”
“A marvelous work, introducing readers to their terra incognita of Japanese public policy analysis. The beauty of the volume is the comprehensive and concise coverage of concepts, methods, and substantive topics of public policy analysis as practiced in Japan. A must-read for public policy analysts and laymen alike.”
“An excellent academic book that should be read deeply, thoroughly, and comprehensively in order to understand policy making in Japan.”
