Book The Australian Policy Handbook

Download or read book The Australian Policy Handbook written by Catherine Althaus and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-21 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seventh edition of this classic handbook on the policy process is fully updated, featuring new material on policy making amid local and global disruption, the contestable nature of modern policy advice, commissioning and contracting, public engagement and policy success and failure. The Australian Policy Handbook shows how public policy permeates every aspect of our lives. It is the stuff of government, justifying taxes, driving legislation and shaping our social services. Public policy gives us roads, railways and airports, emergency services, justice, education and health services, defence, industry development and natural resource management. While politicians make the decisions, public servants provide analysis and support for those choices. This updated edition includes new visuals and introduces a series of case studies for the first time. These cases—covering family violence, behavioural economics, justice reinvestment, child protection and more—illustrate the personal and professional challenges of policymaking practice. Drawing on their extensive practical and academic experience, the authors outline the processes used in making public policy. They systematically explain the relationships between political decision makers, public service advisers, community participants and those charged with implementation. The Australian Policy Handbook remains the essential guide for students and practitioners of policy making in Australia.

Book Guidelines for Managing Risk in the Australian Public Service

Download or read book Guidelines for Managing Risk in the Australian Public Service written by Australian Government Publishing Service and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 43 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Management Advisory Board (MAB) and the Management Improvement Advisory Committee (MIAC), are together responsible for advising the Government on significant public management issues. The board and the Advisory Committee identified "the need for greater recognition of the place of risk management in maximising program effectiveness" as an important issue in the ongoing Australian Public Service (APS) reform program. The reforms are aimed at benefiting the community through efficient and effective delivery of government programs. Features of the recent reforms, such as increased devolution of responsibility, greater flexibility, a focus on results, and accountability, have provided the broad administrative framework for further improvements to occur. This framework, combined with a general environment of continuous change and of limited resources, makes management of risk an important issue for consideration.

Book Hazard Management and Emergency Planning

Download or read book Hazard Management and Emergency Planning written by Dennis Parker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book assesses critically the British approach to hazard management and emergency planning. It identifies the principal legal, organizational and cultural impediments to more effective hazard management and emergency planning, postulates explanations for the shortcomings in the British approach and examines a number of promising avenues for improving current practice. It comprises 18 chapters written by experts with a wide range of practical experience in the many different aspects of the field. Many of the authors introduce international perspectives and comparisons. From it all, the editors conclude, sadly: 'The overall hazard and emergency management approach currently adopted in Britain appears to be inadequate and current standards of protection appear to be inefficient for the 1990s and beyond'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book aims to develop four key challenges that remain unresolved in the boundary-spanning literature, which span from the conceptual, to the practice, to the translational. In doing so, it tackles the question of boundary-spanning from four different angles, providing an in-depth investigation of the current state of the field in each of these realms, in addition to new directions for solving the identified challenges. Finally, the book synthesises the lessons from each of these challenges into a coherent and integrated final piece of the boundary dilemma. In doing so, it will provide depth and a clearer agenda for future research and practice. Crossing Boundaries in Public Policy and Management digs into the heart of enduring questions and challenges for cross-boundary working, providing in-depth conceptual contributions on the fundamental challenges of boundary work. It displays the latest state of knowledge on the topic and will be of interest to researchers, academics, practitioners, and students in the fields of public management, public policy, public administration, public-private relationships and coordination and collaboration.
