The purpose of this assignment is for you to draw on the analytical exercises that were emphasized in the various module activities that you had to complete over this course. For this final assignment you are to write a 3,000-word, double-spaced essay in which you prepare a thoughtful response to the following problem:
Select a major national policy of a country of your choice with which you are conversant and that once enjoyed wide public support and that was initiated during a period of great political momentum but is currently being stalled in the implantation stage of the policymaking process or one that was implemented successfully but is now reaching the policy termination stage. A National Healthcare policy and a National Immigration policy in the USA are good examples.
You have been called in as a policy advisor to resuscitate the policy you have chosen. Drawing on lessons and insights from the readings and lectures on how the policy process works, apply these lessons and insights to provide concrete recommendations that you would propose to reinvigorate the policy.
In your essay make sure to use APA style (Links to an external site.), include at least 3 scholarly sources, and consider the following:
Strategies related to the issue of problem definition for how the issue might be reframed in ways that might breathe new political life into a dying issue
The application of specific agenda setting techniques for getting the issue back on to the systemic agenda and formal (institutional) agendas
How the policy might be successfully reformulated in light of recent political developments, realities, constraints, challenges, and opportunities. You should draw on specific strategies that we covered in the module on policy formulation
How the political environment is viewed in a contextual overlay to your policy
