Policy and Implementation



Case Study

            In general knowledge, policy is like a statement of objective or goal, and an implementation need such a goal in order to judge whether that implementation is successful or failed.
            The policy of the project in Oakland is to increase the employment rate among minority group. Therefore, the govt has established a policy that the govt will provides budget (financial support) to any facility which promises to create jobs for the minority group. 
            The government provides 3 million- budget to Oakland. If any company has ability to create jobs for minorities, that company will be able to get the loan from the government.
            If the company agrees with the condition, he will get the financial support to construct the factory. When a factory is established, it would need a lot of human labors.  Then the minorities will be provided jobs to do; as the result, the unemployment rate among the minority group will be decreased. Therefore, the govt’s platinum goal will be achieved.
            In contrast, if the company doesn’t agree with the govt’s condition, the construction will be halted resulting in no new jobs for the minority group.
            So to say, the policy is like a system that requires the each element of the process to be implemented so as to achieve the objective of the policy. If any of the elements cannot be implemented, the policy will not be successful.
