Expanded Course Description
Why do the public policies that affect peoples' lives differ so much from nation to nation? Public policies reflect the outcomes of a country's political processes. Public policies everywhere are shaped by ideology, institutions, political culture, participation by citizens, and the influence of the media, political parties, and interest groups. This course introduces international dimensions of public policy making by comparing national systems of governance, public policy making processes, and public policy decisions. You will explore the world's diverse institutions of government and politics. You will investigate concepts, theories, and approaches to comparative public policy by using the cases of economic policy, welfare policy, educational policy, health care policy, and environmental policy. This course meets UO core education group requirements for Social Science and Global Perspectives, and it provides a strong foundation for upper-level studies in planning, public policy and management.
