Transformational Change in Public Policy
About this book
How can Public Policy scholarship contribute to transformational societal change?
In this collection of essays, previously published in Policy & Politics, the authors explore different avenues towards more transformational Public Policy research. This includes being braver in what questions we ask; more inclusive in the actors we study and audiences we speak to; and more diverse in our theories and methods. The chapters address issues such as crises, democracy, participation, disasters, and paradigm change.
This book is essential reading for academics involved in Public Policy and Politics, and those invested in the improvement of our societies during turbulent times.
