Inhalte:
This course analyzes public policy from a comparative perspective. It focuses on how political science explains cross-sectoral and-country differences in the processes and outcomes of public policy. The first part of the course concentrates on the process of policy-making. It examines the nexus between political parties, institutions, and societal actors on the one hand, and policy changes on the other. The second part looks on what happens after policies are adopted. It seeks to explain why some policies achieve their objectives whilst others do not and which measures governments may take to safeguard against policy failure. In the third block, the students are asked to apply the theories and concepts learned to analyze practical cases. The course covers different policy areas such as environmental, climate and social policy.
Lernziele:
The main aim of the course is to attain three larger learning targets. The first one is to increase the students’ (1) understanding of what policies are and how it is possible to assess and compare them across different spatial contexts. The second key target is to get a better (2) understanding of the various factors determining the process of policy-making and thus the policy choices made. The third learning target is to gain (3) a better sense of the multiple aspects that determine the extent to which policies do ultimately achieve their intended objectives.
