Policy-Making in the Federal Executive Branch

Informationen zum Autor Author Michael Ripley is a lifelong Hoosier, a husband of over forty years, and a father of five. He is a writer who enjoys fictional tales of relationships, suspense, and the occasional ghost. Retired from a rewarding career in Information Technology, he now finds the time to assemble those past stories, write new tales, and stay involved in his local writers' group. Klappentext Taking research on policy making beyond the restraints of existing literature, this book provides readers with a comprehensive framework to facilitate a systematic and scientific study of policy and policy making. With previously published research on policy making only focusing on case studies or budgetary explanations, Randall Ripley and Grace Franklin, alongside a team of qualified researchers, have put together an informative book that goes beyond the shortcomings of such limited information. Combining the advantages of comparability between policy areas and adequate attention to non-budgetary explanatory variables, Policy Making in the Federal Executive Branch provides readers with information that is important and interesting on multiple aspects of policy and policy making in the United States government.
