Capturing the Political Imaginiation

Viac o knihe

The book explores the influential role of think tanks in shaping political thought and public policy, focusing on their interactions with decision-makers rather than their direct impact on policy implementation. Diane Stone analyzes the informal processes of agenda setting and policy entrepreneurship, highlighting differences between British and American think tanks. The American context, with its greater financial support and fragmented political landscape, facilitates more interaction with power holders. The work also includes a comprehensive listing of major think tanks in both countries.
