Download or read book Public Policy Evaluation written by Stuart S. Nagel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-08-13 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1998, this volume examines how super-optimum decisions involve finding alternatives to controversies whereby Conservatives, Liberals, or other major groups can all come out ahead of their best initial expectations simultaneously. This book is organised in terms of concepts, methods, causes, process, substance, and the policy studies profession. Concepts clarify that policy evaluation traditionally involves: (1) Goals to be achieved; (2) Alternatives available for achieving them; (3) Relations between goals and alternatives; (4) Drawing a conclusion as to the best alternative in light of the goals, alternatives, and relations; and (5) Analysing how the conclusion would change if there were changes in the goals, alternatives, or relations. Super-optimizing also involves five related steps, but with the following improvements: (1) Goals are designed as conservative, liberal, or neutral; (2) Alternatives get the same designations; (3) Relations are simplified to indicate which alternatives are relatively high or low on each goal; (4) The conclusion involves arriving at an alternative that does better on Goal A than Alternative A, and simultaneously better on Goal B than Alternative B; and (5) The fifth step involves analysing the super-optimum or win-win alternative in terms of its feasibility as to the economic, technological, psychological, political, administrative, and legal matters.

The SOS Resolution is a special kind of Win-Win dispute resolution where one where both or all sides come out ahead of even their best initial expectations simultaneously.

Download or read book Developing Nations and Super optimum Policy Analysis written by Stuart S. Nagel and published by Wadsworth Publishing Company. This book was released on 1993 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The key purpose of this book is to apply decision-aiding software and super-optimum solutions to the public policy problems of developing nations. Decision-aiding software refers to microcomputer programs that can process a set of societal goals to be achieved, public policy alternatives for achieving them, and relations between goals and alternatives. Super-optimum solutions refer to policy alternatives that enable liberals, conservatives, or other major viewpoints to exceed their initial best expectations simultaneously. This approach can be applied to policy problems that relate on a general level to technology, economics, sociology, and political science. This approach is also applicable to more specific policy problems that relate to labor-management relations, transportation, agriculture, education, employment, and defense.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of An Operational Approach to Policy Analysis: The Craft is to cut through the ambiguity and contradictions inherent in policy analysis by means of an operational-prescriptive approach. Its main objective is to encapsulate the essential concepts, methods and tools of policy analysis and to provide an insight into factors acting within and around the policy analysis process. Based on the collaborative research of Iris Geva-May and Aaron Wildavsky, the first full draft of An Operational Approach to Policy Analysis: The Craft was completed just before Dr Wildavsky's untimely death. Since that time, Dr Geva-May has worked to thoroughly revise and update the manuscript. An Operational Approach to Policy Analysis: The Craft can be used by researchers in political science, or as a textbook for any course in policy analysis, policy planning and evaluation. It will serve as a valuable source for students of political science, public policy, administration and management, as well as for policy analysts, researchers and executives in both the US and abroad.
