The third edition of this highly regarded book provides a concise and accessible introduction to the principles and elements of policy design in contemporary governance. It examines in detail the range of substantive and procedural policy instruments that together comprise the toolbox from which governments choose tools to resolve policy problems and the principles and practices that lead to their use. Guiding readers through the study of the many different kinds of instruments used by governments in carrying out their tasks, adapting to, and altering, their environments, this book: • Considers the principles and practices behind the selection and use of specific types of Instruments in contemporary government and arrangements of policy tools esp. procedural tools and policy portfolios. • Evaluates in detail the merits, demerits, and rationales for the use of specific organization, regulatory, financial and information-based tools and the trends visible in their use. • Examines key issues such as policy success and failure and the role of design in it; policy volatility and risk management through policy design; how behavioural research can contribute to better policy designs; and the 'micro' calibrations of policies and their importance in designs and outcomes. • Addresses the issues not only surrounding individual tools but also concerning the evolution and development of instrument mixes, their relationship to policy styles and the challenges involved in their (re)design as well as the distinction between design and "non-design'. Providing a comprehensive overview of this essential component of modern governance and featuring helpful definitions of key concepts and further reading, this book is essential reading for all students of public policy, administration, and management.

Excerpt from Outline of Lectures Upon Political Economy: Prepared for the Use of Students at the University of Michigan and Cornell University § 1. Political Economy treats of industrial society. Its purpose as an analytic science is to explain the industrial actions of men. Its purpose as a constructive science is to discover a scientific and a rational basis for the formation and government of industrial society. This statement is given in place of a definition and leads to three suggestions. (1) Political economy being a science demands scientific treatment, yet it bears no strict analogy to a physical science. (2) The study of economics starts with the conception of organized society, but limits its investigations to one set of social functions, I. a: business activity. (3) The object held in view by all students of economy is the well being of men so far as this is dependent on material prosperity. Read Cossa ch. I., and Marshall ch. I. § 2. The industrial actions of men are satisfactorily explained when shown to be in harmony with some ultimate truth which governs human conduct Such truths bring to view three classes of facts. (1) Facts of human nature. ^The economist is thus obliged to understand the fundamental character of man and to accept the laws of human nature as data for his reasoning. To discover these laws he must rely on direct observation, both of the workings ot his own mind and the conduct of his neighbors;, upon history; and upon statistics.
