It is widely appreciated that policies, however carefully formulated, too often fall down at the implementation stage. This collection, originally published in 1981 and which includes a number of case studies illustrating the roles and workings of the agencies involved, focuses on implementation in public policy. Part 1 reviews the literature on implementation and provides a theoretical context for examining the ten case studies in Part 2, which cover such policy areas as public expenditure, employment, housing, social services, health, planning and land. The editors also examine the main issues raised by the case studies and suggest a way of reconstructing an understanding of the implementation of public policy.

About the Author
Colin Fudge is an Architect and Town Planner, Professor of Urban Futures and Design, RMIT University and Visiting Professor at numerous universities around the world. He has maintained his academic and public policy work in relation to sustainable urban futures through research, postgraduate innovations, partnership working, advisory roles and actions on the ground. He was Vice President of RMIT University, Melbourne, and set up a new university, RMIT Europe from scratch in Barcelona in 2012. This major innovation for RMIT University has involved major partnership and collaborative engagement across Europe with governments, universities, industries, cities, and not for profit organisations and substantial linkages between Europe and Australasia. As well as working in universities he has worked in government in the UK (Central Government and cities: Camden, London, Bath) and Sweden, (SIPU and SIDA, The development of the civil service in Zimbabwe) the European Commission, and for the State Government in Victoria, Australia.
Professor Fudge chaired the EU Urban Environment Expert Group (1993 – 2005), was the main author of the European Commission book, European Sustainable Cities (1996), wrote the EU Fifth Framework for Research, chaired the EU Urban Research panel and has been awarded 12 EU research grants. He was appointed as the Urban Environment Special Advisor to the European Commission President, Jacques Delors in 1994. He worked as a Special Adviser to the EU Climate KIC in 2016/17. Professor Fudge has contributed through interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research on public policy formulation and implementation; cities; sustainable development, adaptation, and transition to climate change; public health; demographic change; and urban design. He has won over 45 research grants and has examined 36 PhDs. He has led European and Australian university and city transformations to sustainable, low carbon futures. This has been recognised through the awarding of the King Carl Gustav XVI Royal Professorship of Environmental Science by the Swedish Academy of Sciences in 2002 and the award of an Honorary Fellowship of the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). He has been awarded Honorary Doctorates for his work on public policy and sustainable cities.
He has written eleven books, more than 160 articles and reports, numerous book chapters and presented more than 150 conference papers. In 2020 he edited a Special Issue of Cities & Health Journal on Transforming cities and health; with Holger Wallbaum he wrote the keynote paper for the World Sustainable Built Environments Conference, and has followed that with research, International workshops and foresight publications on transformation to meet the UN SDGs; and will publish a book in 2026 Architecture+Nature+Climate+Cities: regenerative thinking, transforming policy and practice.
Colin Fudge has led major building, urban design and city transformation projects in London, Melbourne, Saigon, Singapore, Hong Kong, Bath, Bristol, and Stockholm. He was the Southwest of England Commissioner for CABE and set up the SW England Design Review Panel.

Right of withdrawal
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
Criteria for exclusion or expiry
The revocation right is not available for contracts
-
for delivery of products, which are not prefabricated and for whose manufacturing an individual selection or stipulation by the consumer is important or which are clearly tailored to the personal requirements of the consumer;
-
for delivery of products, which can spoil quickly or whose use-by date would be exceeded quickly;
-
for delivery of alcoholic drinks, whose price was agreed at the time of concluding the contract, which however can be delivered 30 days after the conclusion of the contract at the earliest and whose current value depends on the fluctuations in the market, on which the entrepreneur has no influence;
