Policy beliefs, governance mismatch, and instrument choices
Persistent policy failures in health systems are widely recognized, with inappropriate policy mixes identified as a key contributing factor. However, why inappropriate policy tools get selected is not well understood in health policy research. Studies in policy sciences suggest that the choice of policy tools is determined by the existing governance mode and the underlying logic of the policy regime. If the chosen governance mode does not align w…
Public policy education in India
Despite the surge in global demand over the last few decades, the supply and design of public policy education has been notably concentrated within western and developed country contexts. The same era has not seen a comparable rise in public policy education and accreditation emerging from developing countries that are still unable to fully meet the existing domestic needs for these skills. In India, core public policy education is in its emergin…
Role of Psychosocial Factors in Effective Design of Solid Waste Management Programmes
The critical need for behavioural change for effective solid waste management is well known. However, policies and programmes continue to underemphasize this crucial component in their design, especially in developing countries such as India. Further, empirical research on the psychosocial factors in solid waste management in developing countries is limited, including within India, where a large national programme for solid waste management is cu…
Policy entrepreneurship in Asia
Policy entrepreneurs engage in collaborative action to promote broad societal changes. They distinguish themselves from other political actors through their willingness to promote policy innovations that are new within specific contexts. Research on policy entrepreneurs has burgeoned over the past three decades. In this special issue, we showcase new explorations of policy entrepreneurship in Asia. This overview essay reviews the concept of polic…
Policy entrepreneurs as catalysts of broad system change
Understanding what drives broad, system change is fundamental, as societies seek to adapt to challenges. We highlight the role that policy entrepreneurs can play as catalysts of such change by linking micro-level strategies and broad, system change which remains understudied. Applying a historical perspective, we analyse the adoption of social health insurance programs in India to identify the role played by policy entrepreneurs in driving the ad…
Interactive governance and implementation effectiveness in India's National Health Insurance Program
Many public sector programs, such as those directed at public health, are often multiagency tasks where structural incongruity in the program design is liable to emerge over time from changing operational requirements. Yet, successful implementation remains possible because of the interactions and relationships between implementation parties that encourage cooperation and collaboration despite incongruence in the program design. We examine how th…
An Analysis of Selected Pension and Health Care Initiatives for Informal Sector Workers in India
India's demographic trends portend moderately rapid ageing of the population. This, combined with the limited coverage of pension and health care programmes in terms of population, types of risks covered, and benefit levels has led to greater urgency in extending the coverage and reform directions of the current pension and health care programmes. This article analyses three pension and health care initiatives in India directed at the workers and…
