CIDE-5107 Governmental Agenda and Formulation of Public Policies
The State plays a key role in addressing the needs of the public, and public policies are the instrument to carry out this task. Therefore, the manner in which the State decides that a problem is socially relevant and deserves attention, as well as the criteria for the allocation of available resources to solve it, demand a thorough analysis, since there is social pressure over the State to address the public problems in a more efficient and effective manner, especially if such decisions affect the wellbeing of vast sectors of population and the development path of their countries. It is precisely at this point that the analysis of public policies as a sub discipline of study gains importance, and is the reason for the specialization of professionals on how to set and structure public policies.
