This collection investigates public policies that its contributors regard as successful, asking how they developed and what made their achievements possible. Cases from Australia and New Zealand connect the design of institutions and programmes with implementation, political circumstances and the ability to sustain results over time.
Studies include higher education funding, water markets, competition policy, taxation, Medicare, responses to financial crises and retirement savings. Other chapters discuss accident compensation, early childhood education and partnerships in public health. The opening chapter explains the comparative approach, while individual studies examine both outcomes and the processes that produced them. References, figures and tables support the case analyses.
