Poststructural Policy Analysis

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the critical examination of public policy, the book introduces the "What's the Problem Represented to be?" (WPR) approach, encouraging readers to analyze how policies define and shape societal issues. It emphasizes the importance of questioning the underlying assumptions of policies, their creation, and their consequences. Through diverse examples, including obesity, economic policy, migration, and gender equality, the authors illustrate the practical application of this poststructural analysis, promoting a deeper understanding of the political implications of policy-making.
