"Transparency in Public Policy: Great Britain and the United States identifies competing forces on policy design and implementation. The book addresses the issue of policy transparency: are policies easily understood; how is information about public policies made available; is accountability for outcomes clear; and do citizens know what role they play in the implementation of policy? Framed within the context of comparative international policy discussions, this volume examines how recent policy design has been influenced by combinations of market-based, regulatory and legal mechanisms."--Jacket.
