Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Why do policies fail How can we objectively choose the best policy from two (ore more) competing alternatives How can we create better policies To answer these critical questions this book presents an innovative yet workable approach. Avoiding Policy Failure uses emerging metapolicy method…ologies in case studies that compare successful policies with ones that have failed. Those studies investigate the systemic nature of each policy text to gain new insights into why policies fail. In addition to providing intriguing directions for research, this book also suggests a bold new standard for evaluating policies. While this method is broadly generalizable, specific examples are provided showing how to develop better Economic Policy, Military Policy, and Constitutional Organizations. This book shows scholars, researchers, and policy analysts how to develop more effective policies so that we may achieve our highest aspirations and avoid the horrendous failures of the past.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - There's a well-known quote that states that 'prediction is hard, especially about the future.' Well, it's equally as true, if considerably less clever, to state that complexity is hard, especially about the real world. It's somewhat ironic that a discipline that draws so much on real world… phenomena, arguing against the oversimplification of models, has had limited impact on business/social modeling. While many of the more beguiling concepts have embedded themselves in everyday language, complexity thinking, as a formal discipline, is clearly much less widespread. There are islands of success, but the intellectual tectonic shifts required to make them continents have not been forthcoming. This collection is the start of an attempt to redress the balance. Each of the 19 chapters attempts to build a bridge from concepts to application. We'd be deluding ourselves, and misleading the reader, if we claimed that these pages contain off-the-shelf tools that can be applied by those with no background in complexity science. However, we hope that this collection provides inspiration to those who wish to take complexity to the masses.
