Industry Influence in Stakeholder‐Driven State Climate Change Planning Efforts
Drawing from the literature on public participation and stakeholder collaboratives, this article investigates the influence of power and wealth, as well as political and economic context on the output of stakeholders advisory committees convened to formulate state greenhouse gas (GHG) mitigation policies. Using small sample regression techniques, we analyze the outputs of stakeholder groups in 18 states that have completed Climate Action Plans to…
Toward a National Strategic Investment Framework
America is entering a tumultuous period unrivaled in recent history. We are facing a disruption of our economy only rivaled by the Great Depression. We need to come to grips with our reliance on foreign oil that is at the heart of our national security problems. We are confronted with the challenge of global survival because of climate change. Finally, our economic growth over the past several decades has left many in America behind. These were t…
Toward Sustainable Communities
This analysis of U.S. environmental policy offers a conceptual framework that serves as a valuable roadmap to the array of laws, programs, and approaches developed over the last four decades. Combining case studies and theoretical discussion, the book views environmental policy in the context of three epochs: the rise of command-and-control federal regulation in the 1970s, the period of efficiency-based reform efforts that followed, and the more …
Beyond Superfailure
Social Movements and the Policy Process
Social movements frequently fail to achieve the policy changes they seek, despite impressive demonstrations of widespread support. Yet movement participation has become increasingly popular as a form of political action. The authors seek to resolve this dilemma by distinguishing between three arenas of movement success: changing policy, gaining participation in the policy process, and changing social values. It is suggested that gaining access to…
Toxics policy in California
Regulating Coastal Land Use in California, 1973–1975
Rela Tionships between Governing Boards and Professional Staff
This paper examines two critical aspects of the relationship between part-time policy boards andfull-time professional staff: (1) the views of each group toward the proper role of staff and (2) the respective influence of commissioners and staff. The results from a study offour land-use regulatory agencies suggest that the amount of congruence between the two groups on substantive policy issues is the dominant factor affecting their relationship …
Can Organizations Change? Environmental Protection, Citizen Participation, and the Corps of Engineers
As the title suggests, this work concerns itself with our assessment of the environmental movement's impact upon the procedures, organizational structure, and objectives of the Corps of Engineers. The authors have selected four measures of organizational change-setting new goals, reorganization, changes in output, and open decisionmaking-as important factors in the assessment of bureaucratic change in the 1970s. With these factors in mind, the au…
Values, Truth, and Administration
A Multivariate Model of Public Policy-Making
Political scientists have explored policy-making from many perspectives, e.g., demographic characteristics, constituency preferences, decision-makers' attitudes, the influence of career bureaucrats, and the input of interested and affected citizens. While the empirical evidence marshalled around each is often rich, seldom have two or more of the perspectives been systematically integrated. Richard Hofferbert's recently developed multivariate (six…
The Implementation of Public Policy
The Future of Political Parties as Organizations and Symbols
An Interesting Thesis
Tradition Be Damned! The Army Corps of Engineers Is Changing
One' element of this anti-bureaucracy tradition is the assumption that established bureaucracies are inherently stagnant social institutions, protective of the status quo. They have been depicted as especially resistant to implementing new policies and procedures, and as lacking the capability to aggressively respond to emerging public interests.2 This conservative view of bureaucracy has largely eclipsed the alternative, that even mature organiz…
