Preferred term

public policy development  

Definition(s)

  • There is the story that when asked about the making of American foreign policy, former secretary of state Henry Kissinger reportedly responded, “We don't really make policy, instead we make a series of decisions that eventually become the policy.” This anecdote illustrates the difficulties in understanding what policies are, when they emerge, or why. The most important things governments do is make policy. [Source: The Encyclopedia of Political Science; Public Policy Development]
