Design for Policy
Design for Policy is the first publication to chart the emergence of collaborative design approaches to innovation in public policy.Drawing on contributions from a range of the world’s leading academics, design practitioners and public managers, it provides a rich, detailed analysis of design as a tool for addressing public problems and capturing opportunities for achieving better and more efficient societal outcomes.In his introduction, Christian Bason suggests that design may offer a fundamental reinvention of the art and craft of policy making for the twenty-first century.From challenging current problem spaces to driving the creative quest for new solutions and shaping the physical and virtual artefacts of policy implementation, design holds a significant yet largely unexplored potential.The book is structured in three main sections, covering the global context of the rise of design for policy, in-depth case studies of the application of design to policy making, and a guide to concrete design tools for policy intent, insight, ideation and implementation.The summary chapter lays out a future agenda for design in government, suggesting how to position design more firmly on the public policy stage.Design for Policy is intended as a resource for leaders and scholars in government departments, public service organizations and institutions, schools of design and public management, think tanks and consultancies that wish to understand and use design as a tool for public sector reform and innovation.

Health Policy in Asia : A Policy Design Approach
The book assesses the policy actions of select Asian governments (China, India, Hong Kong, South Korea, Singapore and Thailand) to address critical health system functions from a policy design perspective.The findings show that all governments in the region have made tremendous strides in focussing their attention on the core issues and, especially, the interactions among them.However, there is still insufficient appreciation of the usefulness of public hospitals and their efficient management.Similarly, some governments have not made sufficient efforts to establish an effective regulatory framework which is especially vital in systems with a large share of private providers and payers.A well-run public hospital system and an effective framework for regulating private providers are essential tools to support the governance, financing, and payment reforms underway in the six health systems studied in this book.

Mediating Innovation Policy Delivery : The Regional Innovation Centres of Ontario
Report cards and academic scholarship have been critical of innovation policy in Canada.But what if these reports have done a profound injustice to the story of knowledge-driven economic reinvention and the actual transformation taking place in the country?Spotlighting what is happening in cities and regions across Ontario, Mediating Innovation Policy Delivery argues that it is far more nuanced and exciting than what has been captured in scorecards and report cards.The book explores the intermediary institutions, the organizational brokers at the frontline of Canada’s innovation race, that are shepherding the process of economic reinvention in regions large and small. The book draws on case studies to explore three central themes.The first is about innovation, innovation policy, and their delivery systems.The second is that of regions as the frontlines of technological and socioeconomic change in the Canadian federation.The third covers the role of intermediary institutions as innovation platforms, highlighting their triumphs and tribulations as they strategically navigate through the shifting currents of change.The book’s main lessons apply not just to Ontario and Canada but also to other industrialized democracies worldwide.Ultimately, the book advances our knowledge of organizational instruments of innovation policy delivery that operate at the strategic interface between the state, market, and society.

Public Inquiries and Policy Design
Public inquiries regularly produce outcomes of importance to policy design.However, the policy design literature has largely ignored the many important ways that public inquiries can act as policy design tools, meaning the functions that inquiries can offer the policy designer are not properly understood.This Element addresses this gap in two ways. First, it presents a theoretical discussion, underpinned by international empirical illustrations, to explain how inquiries perform policy design roles and can be classified as procedural policy tools.It focuses on four inquiry functions – catalytic, learning, processual, and legitimation.Second, it addresses the challenge of designing inquiries that have the policy-facing capacities required to make them effective.It introduces plurality as a key variable influencing effectiveness, demonstrating its relevance to internal inquiry operations, the external inquiry environment, and policy tool selection.Thus, it combines conceptual and practical insights to speak to academic and practice orientated audiences.
