520			_aPolicy making is a political struggle over values and ideas. By explaining the many paradoxes that underlie even seemingly straightforward policy decisions, Policy Paradox shows students that politics cannot be cleansed from policy making in favor of rational, scientific analysis. Deborah Stone reveals why people care so passionately about policy, and her theory of policy making gives students the tools to explore their own values as they analyze policy politics -- Policy Paradox has always been known for its warm, conversational writing style, and that tradition continues in this major revision. The third Edition retains the existing structure but develops the concepts using today's leading issues, such as national security, racial justice, immigration, climate change, gay rights, international development aid, and human rights. It introduces students to new ideas in policy studies, including behavioral economics, ethical analysis of policy instruments, neoliberalism, and debates over privatization and the proper scope of government. A new chapter on security tackles the paradoxes that arise as societies confront all sorts of potential harms, from terrorisms to genetically modified organisms to natural disasters --
