Process-Policy and Outcome-Policy: Rethinking How to Address Poverty and Inequality
Process matters not just for diagnosing the causes of inequality, but also for how policy is shaped
Abstract
Process matters not just for diagnosing the causes of inequality, but also for how policy is shaped. The dominant paradigms for policy-making 바카라 사이트� neoliberalism, neo-Keynesianism, and neo颅paternalism 바카라 사이트� largely address inequality via 바카라 사이트渙utcome-policies바카라 사이트� that manipulate the levers of government and, more recently, draw on randomized trials and 바카라 사이트渘udges바카라 사이트� to change behavior, in a manner that is not only easy to measure, but also easy to reverse. This commentary draws on the essays in this special issue of D忙dalus to make the case for 바카라 사이트渞eflectivism,바카라 사이트� which shifts structural inequalities in agency, power, social structure, empathy, and aspiration in an incremental manner that is more uncertain and difficult to measure, but that can result in more lasting change.
