Abstract
- This paper attempts to present an analytical framework of analysis of problems relating to public systems. Current optimization models, which originated in the private sector, are not adequate to handle the complexity of the decision making processes in public policy analysis. The proposed model aims at lessening ideological debates over statements of goals, and it emphasizes policy selection through goal redefinitions where both goals and policies arc formulated simultaneously. The model is based on an iterative process where consensus over policies is arrived at between the policy maker and the Constituents of the public system. The principal feature of the model is that it incorporates political debates and bargains, and provides for the development of insight. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
