1 School of Public Policy Oregon State University Advanced Policy Theory I (4 Credits) PPL 613 Winter 2017 Tuesday, 9:00 to 12:50 pm from 01/09/2017 to 03/17/2017 Gilkey Hall 305 Version: 1/3/2017 Subject to Revision Professor: Michael D. Jones Office: 100D Bexell Hall Office Hours: Tuesday and Thursday, 1:30 to 2:30 Jones michael.jones@oregonstate.edu Introduction This is the first of two courses on the foundations of public policy theory. As such, the focus of this course is on policy theory itself as said theory is understood by the academic subfield of Public Policy. The content of this course assumes that students have a basic understanding of common theories of the policy process as well as a basic understanding of dominant approaches in policy analysis. The need for this foundational knowledge is found in the goal of the course, which is to explore, analyze, and deconstruct the theoretical building blocks of said theory, while also examining a few less common theories as well. The questions we will ask are many: How does theory affect our understanding of reality and our vision of what reality ought to be? Is there a universally recognizable reality or does reality depend on individual perspectives? If the latter, whose reality are we to address through public policy? How do power relations affect the policy process? Through what institutions is policy accomplished, and with what consequences? Who is the we that decides? What explains decision-making? How are class, race, ethnicity, gender and other forms of difference accommodated in decision making? Are these processes compatible with the democratic ideal? How do ethics, morality, and values enter the policymaking process? Course Details This class is a 4 credit course with a prerequisite of PhD standing. Advanced Master s students may be enrolled in the course with approval by the instructor. The class will meet on a once per week basis for four hours, with all reading to be done prior to the start of class. Required Books Most of the course readings can be found on the course Canvas site. However, there are a few required books: Flyvbjerg, Bent Making social science matter: Why social inquiry fails and how it can succeed again. Cambridge university press. Lukes, Steven. Power: A radical view. Macmillan: London, Welch, Don D A Guide to Ethics and Public Policy: Finding Our Way. New York: Routledge
2 Learning Outcomes As a result of actively participating in this course you will be able to: 1. Read and synthesize multiple sources of material related to public policy theory in order to advance your own theorizing regarding your research. This will be assessed through participation in weekly seminars, completion of written essays on selected topics, and application of theory to your ongoing research. 2. Evaluate the appropriate use of theoretical concepts in research design and implementation. This will be assessed through weekly seminar writings and completion of written essays on selected topics. 3. Communicate complex ideas about the role of theory in public policy research. This will be assessed through your participation in the weekly seminar and in seminar discussion leadership. Grading Letter Grade Percent of points possible* A [95-100%] A- [90-94%] B+ [87-89%] B [83-86%] B- [80-82%] C+ [77-79%] C [73-76%] C- [70-72%] D+ [67-69%] D [63-66%] D- [60-62%] F [0-59%] *Please note that grades are rounded up. For example, a 94.6 would be assessed an A letter grade. Course Requirements and Evaluation 20% Reading and active participation in class discussions. All assigned readings must be completed prior to class. Starting week 1, at the beginning of each weekly session, you will provide a typed and printed document detailing (a) question(s) or issue(s) pertaining to the week s readings. These printed documents will become the discussion agenda for the week. At the end of each session, there will be a short writing exercise summarizing the main points, issues to be continued, and questions about the topic. 40% Completion of four written essays (6-8 pages each) discussing and evaluating the weekly readings. You may select readings for any four weeks during the term as the subject of your review essays (save for those weeks where you are leading the discussions) These essays should not merely summarize the readings; they should offer a critical assessment of and/or engagement with ideas or issues in the readings. Papers are due at the beginning of the class session when the reading is discussed. Late essays turned in after the relevant class period will be subject to a full letter grade deduction per day that they are late. Essays should be typed, double-spaced,
3 and must conform to acceptable standards of grammar, punctuation, and citation format. 20% Leadership. Each student will participate in leading at least two discussions. You will be responsible for introducing readings for a class session and leading a discussion on one or more of the questions/issues brought by others in the class. You must be very familiar with the readings during your week as you won t know until class what questions are being posed by colleagues. You might also want to consider looking at some of the additional readings so you can bring different insights to the conversation. 20% Final Exam. One week prior to final exam week the instructor will circulate a comprehensive examination style question. Students will have one week to prepare and turn in an answer to the question. More detailed instructions will be given later in the quarter. Students with Disabilities Accommodations are collaborative efforts between students, faculty and Disability Access Services (DAS). Students with accommodations approved through DAS are responsible for contacting the faculty member in charge of the course prior to or during the first week of the term to discuss accommodations. Students who believe they are eligible for accommodations but who have not yet obtained approval through DAS should contact DAS immediately at See the website for more information: Students Conduct You are expected to conduct yourself in compliance with the university s guidelines regarding civility and comply with all regulations pertaining to academic honesty. For more information, visit the university s comprehensive website at: Other Course Policies Late assignments will be penalized a full letter grade for each day that they are late.

If my office hours do not work for you, please contact me and we can make arrangements. Extra credit will not be allowed in this course. All OSU academic regulations will be followed in this course. This includes the university policy concerning incompletes: "When a requirement of a course has not been completed for reasons acceptable to the instructor and the rest of the academic work is passing, a report of I may be made and additional time granted. The I is only granted at the discretion of the instructor. You are expected to do all required reading and participate in all course requirements.
