Knot Policy Theory
该研究笔记综合了公共政策的主要理论框架，提出“政策结”概念将政策周期、多源流、间断均衡等理论整合为一个分析工具，并以美国气候变化政策为例展示其应用。
This research note synthesizes the main theoretical frameworks in public policy. The concept of policy knots ties policy cycles, multiple streams, punctuated equilibrium, and other frameworks into one useful analytical tool. We introduce two particular policy knots—the granny knot and the clinch knot—to demonstrate the utility of the concept. As an illustration, we examine climate change policy in the United States in order to show the challenges of tying and securing a policy knot.
