one The policy analysis movement in Colombia: the state of the art
-
Pablo Sanabria-Pulido
Abstract
This chapter provides a broad overview and a big-picture assessment of the “state of the art” of policy analysis in Colombia, tracing the policy analysis movement from the 1950s to the 1991 Constitution to the present. It proposes the examination of policy analysis progression in Colombia based on historical and analytical background by identifying key actors. It also looks at a scientific approach to public policy in the Colombian context, citing the role of international missions in the second half of the 20th century as defining forces that laid the groundwork for the early institutional and organizational developments in Colombia's public administration. The chapter delves into the policy analysis that started to develop key roots within the administrative apparatus of Colombia, particularly at the national level of government. It focuses on the current state of policy analysis practices in Colombia.
