Reframing Public Policy: Discursive Politics and Deliberative Practices by Fischer, Frank. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780199242641.

In recent years a set of radical new approaches to public policy, drawing on discursive analysis and participatory deliberative practices, have come to challenge the dominant technocratic, empiricist models in policy analysis. In his major new book Frank Fischer brings together these various new approaches for the first time and critically examines them. The book will be required reading for anyone studying, researching, or formulating public policy.
