Abstract

This study is an attempt to comprehend the very nature of complexity in public policy and to underline the need for a new paradigm in public policy. The study is of the idea that complexity theory and the phenomena associated with complex systems possess a wide array of theoretical and practical tools to comprehend different dimensions of policy processes. Given the challenges of contemporary times with numerous perplexing issues, the work argues that complexity theory is equipped with the tools to grasp the complexities surrounding public policy issues. In such respect, many contemporary paradigms of public policies deal with complexities by means of subscribing to the perspectives of complexity. The study focuses on the basic problematizationhow new public management and governance schemes deal with these complexities

Özet

Bu çalışma kamusal politikaların doğasındaki komplekslikleri anlamaya ve buna dayalı olarak kamusal politikalar ile ilgili karmaşıklıklara cevap verecek yeni bir paradigmaya ihtiyaç olduğu noktasını vurgulama hedefindedir. Kompleksite kuramı ve karmaşık sistemlerle ilişkili olan çeşitli olgular siyasa süreçlerinin değişik boyutlarını anlamak için bir çok kuramsal ve pratik araç sunar. Günümüz dünyasında zorlu koşullar ve gereklilikler göz önüne alındığında, yapılan çalışma ile kompleksite kuramının kamu politikaları yapımı ve uygulama süreçleri ile ilgili sorunlara hem kuramsal hemde pratik anlamda destek vererek, çözüm yolları gösterebileceği ortaya konmuştur. Bu bakımdan kamusal politikalar ile ilgili güncel paradigmalar komplekslik kuramına başvurarak var olan karmaşıklık sorunu ile mücadele etmektedir. Çalışma yeni kamu işletmeciliği uygulamalarının ve yönetişim mekanizmalarının verili karmaşıklıkları nasıl değerlendirdiğini sorunsallaştırmaktadır.
