Viewing policy as political, then, does not mean simply focusing on politicians. Rather, it signifies adopting a stakeholder perspective in 1.4 The contribution of culture: policy as meaning making The third model of the relationship between policy and action, between structure and agency, is based on the idea that human agency cannot be understood by simply regarding people either as cogs in a machine or as elements in an interactive system. Rather, human beings are meaning makers and act on the basis of their understandings and interpretations of events. In other words, they construct their own reality. Such constructions are not unique to them as individuals, but draw on a stock of s 1.3 The perils of partnership: policy as an adaptive system Here the focus is on an organic way of understanding the relationship between policy and action. From this perspective, government, public service organisations, contractors, staff and, more recently, the public themselves are viewed not as cogs in a machine but as mutually interacting elements of an adaptive policy system. As in other organic entities – populations, species, even the human body itself – change takes place around an equilibrium point at which the entity is in balan 2.1 The general Learning outcomes After studying this unit you should be able to: understand the value of modelling the public policy – action relationship; explain the mechanical, organic, cultural and political models of the policy – action relationship. Except for third party materials and otherwise stated (see terms and conditions), this content is made available und Introduction Most of the literature on the policy process focuses on how policy is made: the processes of negotiation and bargaining that take place, the struggle between rationality and politics, and the tension between ‘top-down’ and ‘bottom-up’ approaches. This unit is concerned with a rather different set of dynamics: the relationship between policy and what actually happens in the process of delivery. Formal, sequential descriptions of the policy process relegate this phase to the i MRI Atlas: Brain (Axial) - Image Map (Lateral Surface View/3D) Science in the Courtroom: The Woburn Toxic Trial Loomafüsioloogia loenguid Videogames 101 Event at the MIT Museum Union Leaders vs. Republican Legislators: What's at Stake in the Standoff
In this unit we will examine a range of Napoleonic imagery by David, Gros and a number of other artists, beginning with comparatively simple single-figure portraits and moving on to elaborate narrative compositions such as Jaffa and Eylau. In so doing, we will have three main aims: to develop your skills of visual analysis, to examine the relationship between art and politics and to introduce you to some of the complex issues involved in interpreting works of art.

This Starting Point webpage is a summary of a role-playing resource called Science in the Courtroom: The Woburn Toxic Trial. In this exercise, hydrology students role-play expert witnesses in a mock trial dealing with contamination of groundwater. Students prepare for the role-play by studying the movement of groundwater and the transport of contaminants through computational and map exercises and field trips. For the role-play, the hydrology students work with law students. The hydrologists div

Over the past two weeks, public sector unions in Wisconsin and other states have staged protests against some legislators' attempts to restrict collective bargaining power -- in effect, taking away a union's right to negotiate over salary, seniority, pensions, health care and other work-related issues. The clash has set off debates about budget shortfalls, political posturing and most of all, the role that unions play in today's economy. Wharton professors Janice Bellace and Peter Cappelli offer
