PBPL 46 Policy Implementation
Good policies are neither self-executing nor self-enforcing. Likewise, bad policies are not self-destructing. Indeed, when the President signs a law, this is but the beginning of a new set of equally important political activities and policy battles. This course explores central features of implementation, including bureaucratic activity, judicial review, and street-level administration, and central concepts including principal agent relationships, delegation, oversight, interpretation, maintenance, and erosion, through key cases, including police, health care, and civil rights.
