Policy Analysis: Sessions:Session 1: Introduction, the development of public policy analysis and the policy sciences:
“Governments make public policy”
Public policy analysis ≠ politics ≠ polity
Politics: processes and institutions of the acquisition of political power
Polity: political system as a whole and political subject in there
But public policy is a very political process
The public policy will reflect on the activities by the government
Questions to deal with in policy analysis:
Why are certain policy decisions taken at certain points of time and not others?
F.e.: Corona Pandemic: different policies in different countries
How do individual decisions add up and work together in policy regimes, mixes or are they
incompatible and contradictory?
Explaining why they are how they are and how they came about, and explain
contradictions in policy
Do multiple decisions result in recognizable patterns of policymaking and policy content, or
just in random or quasi-random accumulations of past decisions?
F.e.: Belgium: more consensus between actors to make policy, in the UK or US: the winner
takes it all
Lasswell: founding father of political analysis
Cesare Borgia:
A very skilled leader
Machiavelli was influenced by him to advise and to analyze leaders
Angela Merkel:
Handing over of an analysis of certain policy domain
These pictures ask attention for analysis for policy
Analysis for policy: the analysis is used in policy making, prescriptive and applied

Often analysis for policy and analysis of policy together

‘Beleid’: to command, government, administration
Now beleid mostly means the activities of government, administration, and action
activities of government
action of a specific organization
