This publication focuses on theoretical and practical aspects of public policy, as an attempt to integrate elements that are usually studied separately: economics as an organization, the State as an organization and the market as an organization.
This book is a valuable contribution to people and institutions interested in improving the quality of public policies. Thus, it is fair to propose that “policy matters”, just as well as the characteristics and factors that determine the decision-making processes do.
The importance of design and implementation of public policies has not gone unnoticed in the history of analytical and economical thought, and in the recent debates on Latin America’s development.
