"Designed for upper-level courses and professional programs, The Practice of American Public Policymaking is a state-of-the-art introduction to the policymaking process that gives "equal time" to issues of policy implementation and public governance. It uses an innovative systems approach, integrating the activities, actors, tools, and techniques of policymaking, to provide a comprehensive framework for policy design and analysis." "The book is practice-oriented, with a focus on the ways that policymakers at all levels employ the standard "technologies" of governance - authority, agency, program, rule, contract, and budget - to design policy outputs and achieve policy outcomes. Extensive use of graphics in the text makes concepts easy to grasp for anyone accustomed to the visual representation of ideas. Case studies illustrate the tools and techniques discussed, and key terms, questions for discussion, and suggested readings round out each chapter."--BOOK JACKET.
