1.) Analyze a specific aspect of the policy. Find a stated objective and analyze the policys ability to address the issue.
2.) Use a historical/political and if possible, group psychological frame to understand the underlying values and assumptions that were used to develop the policy. How have the definitions of the social problem been influenced by ideological-based value systems and further informed the policy approach? This frame will aid in your understanding of ineffective policies or possible policy paradoxes.
