Wicked Problems in Public Policy
There are different types of public policy problems. In democratic political systems, policy problems arise in very diverse political and
institutional contexts. These influence how the problems are debated
and resolved. Policy decision-making is structured through organisational processes that reflect historical institutional arrangements. Complex
policy problems often involve conflicting interests and divergent perceptions among various stakeholder groups. Disagreements about problems
and policies arise from many factors, including material interests, sociocultural values and political (dis)trust. The framing of problems and
solutions is expressed in different ways, through the language of economic
benefits, ideological outlooks, group values and political loyalties
