Living in a liberal democracy society
which is claiming to have representative democracy, it needs to live-up to its
claim. The system needs to develop a mechanical system which is reflecting will
of people to govern. Otherwise, it would lead to state of chaos. The system is
seeking measure to develop policies which are going through a filter system.
Stage one is defining policy, stage
two is using a model and theory of public policy and last stage is the policy
cycle. Public policy can be defined in
terms that whenever there is an issue, there is need to be a solution for that
problem. Even sometimes not taking an action against a situation, it is a
policy too. Just imagine if a political system would begin to legislate and
make laws for everything that we want to do. At some point in future we would
leave in dystopia or a police state. These laws and regulation would infringe
our cherished civil liberties.
There are ten model of developing
public policies. Each has its own strength and weakness. There is one primary
factor which cannot be denied that these policies cannot violate constitutional
rights of Canadians. Otherwise, these policies would be violate human rights
and would hold politicians accountable in a court of law. It can be claimed
confidently that neo-institutionalism has a merit for what it claims. The final
stage is the evaluation that does it worth taxpayer’s money to support such a
program? It is more of value judgment and battle of ideologies between between
left and right. The evolution program is encountering problem that how to
define credible evidence and how to select sample which is avoiding bias and
would present a clear progress toward good life.
