POLICY ANALYSIS IN MEXICOInternational Library of Policy Analysis
Series editors: Iris Geva-May and Michael Howlett, Simon Fraser University, Canada
This major new series brings together for the first time a detailed examination of the theory and practice of policy analysis systems at different levels of government and by non-governmental actors in a specific country. It therefore provides a key addition to research and teaching in comparative policy analysis and policy studies more generally.
Each volume includes a history of the country's policy analysis which offers a broad comparative overview with other countries as well as the country in question. In doing so, the books in the series provide the data and empirical case studies essential for instruction and for further research in the area. They also include expert analysis of different approaches to policy analysis and an assessment of their evolution and operation.
Early volumes in the series will cover the following countries:
Australia Brazil China Czech Republic France Germany India Israel Netherlands New Zealand Norway Russia South Africa Taiwan UK USA
and will build into an essential library of key reference works. The series will be of interest to academics and students in public policy, public administration and management, comparative politics and government, public organisations and individual policy areas. It will also interest people working in the countries in question and internationally.
In association with the ICPA-Forum and Journal of Comparative Policy Analysis.
