Shared Responsibilities, Unshared Power: The Politics Of Policy-making In Singapore
The book offers a critical analysis of the political dynamics that shape Singapore’s public policies. It suggests that policy-making in Singapore involves a complex process of interaction among political institutions and that the distribution of power among these institutions is hierarchical and precarious. Thus, the book argues, the contestation of political interests occupies a central position in these stratified interactions, and this has been largely responsible for the types of policies and their impact.
