Principles of public policy analysis:
(A) the systematic principle
In human society, everything is inextricably linked, and * * * constitutes a multi-level complex system, and the policy system is a subsystem of this big system. In the policy system, all policies are interrelated and coordinated, forming an open policy system with a certain structure, level and function.
Predictability principle
The policy system is dynamic. Policy making is based on the parameters and variables obtained from past and present behaviors and results, but it will be effective in the future. Making policy can be said to be a hypothesis of future behavior and a pre-analysis and choice before things happen. Therefore, it is obviously predictable to formulate policies.
(3) the principle of coordination
The principle of policy coordination has two meanings: one refers to the coordination of social interests and values pointed by policies, and the other refers to the coordination of policies at all levels and types in the policy system. The purpose of coordination is to maintain a certain balance. In social life, people and things have an inconsistent side, that is, the opposite; There are also interrelated aspects, especially complementary aspects.
(4) Principles of information technology
In a sense, the process of public policy activities is the process of collecting, transmitting, processing, using and feeding back policy information. In the process of policy, the perception of social problems is its initial stage, and the task of this stage is to collect or perceive information, which is the key link to find problems and enter the policy agenda.
(5) scientific principles
Policy science is a comprehensive, interdisciplinary and applied science. Historical experience has proved that scientific policies can bring social civilization and progress; On the contrary, wrong policies that violate scientific principles will have a negative impact on society and even lead to disastrous consequences. Therefore, the analysis of public policies should follow scientific laws and be carried out in accordance with scientific principles and methods.
(6) democratic principles
First of all, the policies formulated by the government must reflect the will of the people and truly represent the fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority of the people; Secondly, public policies must ensure that people enjoy equal rights and fair interests in political, economic, cultural and other fields of national life; Third, the formulation of public policies must follow legal, scientific and democratic procedures and methods; Fourth, all stages of the policy process must have the full participation of the broad masses of people.
