This book addresses questions which are of central interest to scholars of public policy in all liberal democracies. How can we correctly identify the outcomes of public policies? How can we and how should we judge those effects especially where policies emerge from intense political conflict between groups with divergent views of what represents a desirable outcome? How can we explain the policy outcomes we observe? Where outcomes are not regarded favourably how can we achieve different and more positive results? The book develops a new way of dealing with these questions at a conceptual level making it of interest to the wide community of scholars and policy analysts.
