Networks for Water Policy

Download or read book Networks for Water Policy written by Hans Bressers and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The investigations comprising this volume have been produced as part of a coordinated project by scholars of policy and politics in several countries. Each case treats the issues of water policy network composition and structure, and determinants of network characteristics, as well as documenting the influence of the networks on policy developments towards more network openness, more emulation of business behaviour, and less domination by traditional professional groups such as engineers. Essays by the editors provide a common analytical perspective and offer both explicitly-comparative conclusions and evidence-based assessments of the strengths and limitations of the network perspective.
