Policy Analysis in Turkey

This book provides the first comprehensive overview of the state of policy analysis in Turkey for an international audience. Policy analysis in Turkey, both as an academic inquiry and as a systematic practice in public and other policy-oriented organizations, was extremely limited up until the 1990s, when it began to establish itself more firmly both in the academy and in government. This book opens with a historical examination of the evolution of policy analysis in Turkey, followed by an in-depth review of the context, constraints, and dominant modes of policy analysis performed by governmental and non-governmental actors.
