programs, and services perform well, and many are very successful.
However, these cases are consistently underexposed and understudied in
the policy literature which, for various reasons, tends to focus on
policy mistakes and learning from failures rather than successes. In
fact, studies of public policy successes are rare not just in Canada,
but the world over, although this has started to change (McConnell,
2010, 2017; Compton & 't Hart, 2019; Luetjens, Mintrom & 't Hart,
2019). Like those publications, the aims of Policy Success in Canada
are to see, describe, acknowledge, and promote learning from past and
present instances of highly effective and highly valued public
policymaking. This exercise will be done through detailed examination
of selected case studies of policy success in different eras,
governments, and policy domains in Canada. This book project is
embedded in a broader project led by 't Hart and OUP exploring policy
successes globally and regionally. It is envisaged as a companion
volume to OUP's 2019 offering Great Policy Successes (Compton and 't
Hart, 2019) and to Successful Public Policy in the Nordic Countries
(de La Porte et al, 2022). This present volume provides an opportunity
to analyze what is similar and distinctive about introducing and
implementing successful public policy in one of the world's most
politically decentralized and regionally diverse federation and oldest
democratic polities.
