Policy Advice in Multi-Level Governance Systems: Sub-National Policy Analysts and Analysis
Michael Howlett 한국행정학회 2009 International Review of Public Administration Vol.13 No.3
Despite the existence of a large body of literature on policy analysis, empirical studies of the work of policy analysts are rare, and in the case of analysts working at the sub-national level in multi-level governance systems, virtually non-existent. Many observers decry the lack of even such basic data as how many policy analysts work in sub-national government, on what subjects, and with what effect. This is true in many countries, for example, the U.S., Germany, and Canada, all federal systems with extensive sub-national governments but where what little empirical work exists focuses on government at the national level. In most cases, in justifying their observations and conclusions observers rely on only one or two quite dated works, on very partial survey results, or on anecdotal case studies and interview research. This article reports the findings of a 2008–2009 survey aimed specifically at examining the background and training of provincial policy analysts in Canada, the types of techniques they employ in their jobs, and what they do in their work on a day-by-day basis. The resulting profile of sub-national policy analysts presented here reveals several substantial differences between analysts working for national governments and their sub-national counterparts, with important implications for training and for the ability of nations to accomplish their long-term policy goals.
What is co-creation and how does it create public value?
Wellstead Adam,Howlett Michael,Chakrabarty Aritra 한국행정학회 2022 International Review of Public Administration Vol.27 No.4
Knowledge-based policy influence organizations such as think tanks or policy hubs seek to develop public value through the kinds of knowledge utilization activities in which they are engaged. But what exactly do they do, how do they do it and how does this result in public value? While historically public managers have long been assumed to be the principal purveyors of public value, now many policy actors in their various activities claim to seek to enhance public value and can do so in a number of distinct ways requiring a reassessment of the kinds of activities and efforts they are engaged in. This paper looks at key differences between longestablished organizations like think tanks and newcomers like policy labs to see how they differ in focus upon co-creation, co-design, and co-production in their search for public value.
Policy Consulting in the USA: New Evidence from the Federal Procurement Data System -Next Generation
( Caroline Brouillete ),( Jack Coleman ),( Michael Howlett ),( Roman Skorzus ) 한국정책학회 2016 한국정책학회 추계학술발표논문집 Vol.2016 No.-
Governmental use of consultancy services has long been a concern for scholars of public administration, management and political science. Empirical studies of policy-related consulting are scarce, however, with little quantiative data. This is true of the largest and most archetypal case of governmetn contracting, the United States, which has received very little detailed treatment, despite a plethora of anecdota and popular accounts claiming to have documented a pattern of exponential growth in the size and impact of policy-related government contraction. This paper reports on the distribution of the American federal government`s contracting of policy services in the context of several new initiatives on the part of the Obama administration which provide reasonably accurate data related to questions about the size, trends and other aspects of US federal government policy consulting.
