Notes

【Course Objectives】

This course is designed to acquaint you with the theoretical and practical dimensions of developing and managing effective public policy which includes your role as a policy analyst and as a proactive participant in the broader policy process working for a public program or a public agency. The overall focus of the class is on understanding the policy process, how to facilitate dialogue in the policy process with citizens and elected officials, how to frame issues and conduct policy analysis, and manage the policy process from agenda setting through implementation in the contexts of the Asian countries. In particular, the course will examine how Asian countries view and action public policy in order to understand key differences and similarities in the way public policy is developed and acted on from an Asian perspective. As part of this, students will explore how key Western-style institutions, practices and orientations which comprise ‘public administration’, ‘public management’ and ‘public governance’ might be limited by or changed within the context of Asian society.

【Course Contents】

We will cover the primary theoretical approaches to public policy process—such as multiple streams theory, advocacy coalition framework, punctuated equilibrium theory, and network governance theory—to understand and explain policy development and changes in Asian countries. These theories help us focus on important aspects of the policy process and analyze systematically how the actors and environment work together. Students’ main task for this course will be applying major theories of policy process they learnt in the Public Policy (KT341) course before to their own policy cases in Asian countries.
