Appreciating the pluralist politics of policy-making. 520 "The work of early pluralist thinkers, from Arthur Bentley to Robert Dahl, inspired much optimism about democracy. They argued that democracy was functioning well, despite disagreements arising among the diversity of interests represented in policy-making processes. Yet it is unlikely that anyone paying attention to news coverage today would share such optimism. The media portray current policy- making processes as intractably polarized, devoid of any opportunity to move forward and adopt essential policy changes. This book aims to revive our long-lost sense of optimism about policy-making and democracy. Through original research into biotechnology policy-making in North America and Europe, Éric Montpetit shows that the depiction of policy-making offered by early pluralist thinkers is not so far off the present reality. Today's policy decision-making process - complete with disagreement among the participants - is consistent with what might be expected in a pluralist society, in sharp contrast with the negative image projected by the media"-- |cProvided by publisher 588 0 Print version record. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Political planning.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85104377 650 0 Decision making.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85036199 650 0 Press and politics.|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85106514 650 0 Mass media|xPolitical aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh85081871 650 0 Biotechnology|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85014263|xGovernment policy|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005269|zEurope.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85045631-781 650 0 Biotechnology|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85014263|xGovernment policy|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh99005269|zNorth America.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85092455-781 650 0 Pluralism|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85103570|xPolitical aspects.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh00005651 650 7 Political planning.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1069460 650 7 Decision making.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 889035 650 7 Press and politics.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1075866 650 7 Mass media|xPolitical aspects.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1011278 650 7 Biotechnology|xGovernment policy.|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/832746 650 7 POLITICAL SCIENCE|xEssays.|2bisacsh 650 7 POLITICAL SCIENCE|xGovernment|xGeneral.|2bisacsh 650 7 Biotechnology.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/832729 650 7 POLITICAL SCIENCE|xGovernment|xNational.|2bisacsh 650 7 Pluralism.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1067392 650 7 POLITICAL SCIENCE|xReference.|2bisacsh 651 7 Europe.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1245064 651 7 North America.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1242475 655 0 Electronic books. 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aMontpetit, Éric.|tIn defense of pluralism.|dCambridge, United Kingdom : Cambridge University Press, 2016|z9781107146785|w(DLC) 2015049714 |w(OCoLC)933596264 830 0 Cambridge studies in comparative public policy.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2016119208 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1216159|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
