The seventh edition of this renowned handbook on the policy process has been thoroughly revised, incorporating fresh insights on policymaking amidst local and global disruptions, the contestable nature of contemporary policy advice, commissioning and contracting, public engagement, and policy success and failure.
The Australian Policy Handbook serves as a comprehensive guide, illuminating how public policy permeates every facet of our lives. It forms the foundation of government, justifying taxes, driving legislation, and shaping our social services. Public policy grants us roads, railways, airports, emergency services, justice, education, and health services, as well as defense, industry development, and natural resource management. While politicians wield the power to make decisions, public servants provide analytical support and expertise. This updated edition introduces new visual elements and features a series of case studies for the first time. These cases, encompassing family violence, behavioral economics, justice reinvestment, child protection, and more, vividly illustrate the personal and professional challenges inherent in policymaking practice. Drawing upon their extensive practical and academic expertise, the authors elucidate the processes employed in the formulation of public policy. They meticulously explain the intricate relationships between political decision-makers, public service advisers, community stakeholders, and those responsible for its implementation.
The Australian Policy Handbook remains an indispensable resource for students and practitioners engaged in policymaking in Australia. Its comprehensive coverage, insightful analysis, and practical insights equip individuals with the knowledge and skills necessary to navigate the complex terrain of public policy and contribute to the betterment of society.
