Public policy

Dr Ewen Michael has written a new book called Public Policy: The Competitive Framework. The publication marked the first anniversary of La Trobe University’s Public Sector Governance and Accountability Research Centre (PSGARC).

Dr Michael is a senior lecturer in economics and policy in La Trobe’s School of Sport, Tourism and Hospitality Management within the Faculty of Law and Management.

He was the School’s deputy-head from its inception in 1996 until January 2004, and has since taken up the role of PSGARC deputy director. The publication marks the first of many works that the Centre plans to deliver within the next few years.

Published by Oxford University Press, Public Policy: The Competitive Framework, provides a new interpretation for the analysis of public decision-making.
