About The Book
Public Policy and Private Interest by J.A. Chandler provides an accessible and insightful guide to the policymaking process, especially suited for students and newcomers to the field of public policy. The book explains how policy is formulated, legitimized, implemented, evaluated, and eventually terminated—using clear theoretical models to elucidate each stage.
Chandler explores the influence of key actors and institutions, the ideological and institutional factors shaping the policy agenda, and the various outcomes of policy decisions—analyzing why some policies succeed while others fail. The text covers major policy theories, including emerging perspectives from network theory and postmodernism, and examines how global forces shape national policies.
Fully illustrated with diverse case studies—including the global financial crisis, local government reform, and environmental policy—the book combines theoretical clarity with real-world relevance. This makes it an essential resource for students of public policy, political science, and governance.
