Policy Analysis of Multi-Actor System - Second Edition

Policy analysis in multi-actor systems. Now what does that mean?To start with policy analysis: although it can mean various things to various people in various situ-ations, we can say that ‘policy analysis’ is about using analytical tools and a systematic way of working to support policy-making processes. For instance, we can use analysis to inform policy-makers and decision-makers about the pros and cons of different policy alternatives or we can use a systematic approach to support various parties in reaching an agreement on a suitable policy as a future course of action to address a problem.In this chapter, we will explain how policy analysis contributes to problem-solving, and we position this book in the scientific debate on problem structuring during the initial stages of the policy analysis process
