About this book

Seen from the outside, the world of politics and policy-making seems to be in constant flux. Combining theoretical analysis with primary research, this book brings new light to the neglected problem of why individuals with a vested interest in current policies nevertheless promote reform.

Reviews

'Elites, Ideas, and the Evolution of Public Policy offers an extremely interesting analysis and persuasive argument, and should be widely read among students, scholars and practitioners of public policy.' - Political Studies Review
