Studying Public Policy develops an analytical framework that will enable students to study public policy more effectively. The first of the books three parts examines different approaches to studying public policy by providing inventories of the relevant types of policy actors, structures, and ideas involved in public policy-making.

Part Two then breaks down the policy process into the five sub-processes or sub-stages set out in the policy cycle model and analyzes the variables affecting each stage. Part Three concludes the text with a general commentary on the nature of policy change and stability.

Industry Reviews
"This text provides instructors and students with a comprehensive overview of both the evolution of policy-making approaches and theory and the most current thinking in this field. It organizes a very unwieldy literature into some understandable and usable frameworks." --Debora VanNijnatten, Wilfrid Laurier University "This vital textbook provides a thorough and in-depth description of theory and practice of public policy. It is a required public policy primer for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers who are interested in learning about and delving deep into the study of policy making." --Benjamin Kutsyuruba, Queen's University "Studying Public Policy is a comprehensive guide to the subject, covering an extraordinary breadth of theoretical approaches. It remains an invaluable reference for students as they go forward in our program." --Richard Sutherland, Mount Royal University
