Theories of the Policy Process provides a forum for the experts in the
most established and widely used theoretical frameworks in policy
process research to present the basic propositions, empirical
evidence, latest updates, and the promising future research
opportunities of each framework. This well-regarded volume covers such
enduring classics as Multiple Streams (Zahariadis et al.), Punctuated
Equilibrium (Jones et al.), Advocacy Coalition Framework
(Jenkins-Smith et al.), Institutional Analysis and Development
Framework (Schlager and Cox), and Policy Diffusion (Berry and Berry),
as well as two newer theories—Policy Feedback (Mettler and SoRelle)
and Narrative Policy Framework (McBeth et al.). The fourth edition now
includes a discussion of global and comparative perspectives in each
theoretical chapter and a brand-new chapter that explores how these
theories have been adapted for, and employed in, non-American and
non-Western contexts. An expanded introduction and revised conclusion
fully examines and contextualizes the history, trajectories and
functions of public policy research. Since its first publication in
1999, Theories of the Policy Process has been, and remains, the
quintessential gateway to the field of policy process research for
students, scholars and practitioners.
