Hello and welcome to Analysing Public Policy

My name is Dr Karl Pike. I will be leading POL350, taking you through how policy is made, how we can understand what drives the policy agenda, what affects it, and the strengths and weaknesses of policymaking.

We will often discuss contemporary examples - including the big challenges policymakers are facing, to help us understand how and why decisions are made in the way they are.

I hope you enjoy the course!
