Textul de pe ultima copertă
“Each of the authors in this volume speak with authority and clarity, informed by both personal experience as university teachers and researchers of public policy in Africa… This book is a must read for scholars and students.”
—Peter Wanyande, Professor of Political Science, University of Nairobi, Kenya
This open access book responds to the need for a specifically African focus on public policy. It outlines the fundamental principles of public policy research, and engages with major issues in the study of public policy from an African perspective, covering essential topics such as the location and centrality of social sciences in relation to public policy, leadership, methodology, institutions, governance, and gender. This book is essential for understanding the various aspects and dimensions of policy making in Africa that underscore quality research and are at the core of excellence in teaching and learning.
