Sabatier 2nd Ed. Colorado : Westview Press, 2007 vi, 344 p. : : illus. ; 23 cm. Indeks : p.337-344 This book provides a forum for the proponents of several of the most promising and widely used theoretical frameworks to present the basic propositions of their frameworks, to assess the empirical evidence that has developed, and to discuss promising directions for future research. This second edition revises the first edition and adds new chapters on Social Construction and Policy Design (Schneider et al.) and Policy Networks (Adam and Kriesi). It also contains a much more serious analysis of that European literature relevant to each of the frameworks. Finally, the new edition contains a revised chapter by Edella Schlager presenting a comparative analysis and evaluation of the relevant frameworks and a concluding chapter by the editor suggesting a number of strategies for improving the state of theorizing in this field.
