Public policy has assumed considerable importance in response to the complexity of economic downturns, social upheavals, political crises, institutional weaknesses and technology. It is concerned not only with the description but also with the developing scientific knowledge about the forces shaping public policy.

This textbook, now in its second edition, provides an in-depth study of the various approaches for policy formulation, implementation and evaluation. It addresses issues in policy analysis, and explains the forces that influence the functioning of executive, legislature, judiciary, civil society and administration. The book reviews and evaluates the public policy literature.

It is primarily intended for postgraduate students of Political Science and Public Administration for their courses in Public Policy and Policy Analysis. It will be equally useful for policymakers, planners and bureaucrats concerned with policy management.
