Complexity, Institutions and Public Policy
Agile Decision-Making in a Turbulent World
Graham Room
Graham Room argues that conventional approaches to the conceptualisation and measurement of social and economic change are unsatisfactory. As a result, researchers are ill-equipped to offer policy advice. This book offers a new analytical approach, combining complexity science and institutionalism.
