Policy Analysis
Policy analysis or policy studies is a broad field seeking to understand and improve policy.
Description
This field deals with public policy and evaluation of it. Some portions of the field are descriptive. Other portions apply public choice policy and blend with institutional design academia.
Closely related to the professional field of program evaluation.
Reading Notes
For anything relating to governmental federalization, centralization, or decentralization, see institutional design.
For anything relating to private markets, see regulatory economics. (Yes, arguably welfare is a policy affecting the labor market, but this organization is convenient.)
For anything relating to nation building, see international development.
