In 2019, Serbia adopted its first national urban policy. This document was established through a communicative process during 2018–2019, formally encouraging urban governance as a practical innovation in Serbia’s planning doctrine. The main aim of this research is to explore institutional capacity development within a live setting of the policy formation process. The participants of this process are the primary subjects of the research. Data was collected through participatory events in four instances during the process. The concept of institutional capacity development is used in this paper as a basic framework to assess knowledge, relational and mobilisation capacity for urban governance. The main contribution of this paper is providing an understanding of the challenges and potentials for establishing urban governance practices in a post-socialist country planning context. Findings indicate an increase in the participants’ knowledge and understanding of governance instruments such that coordination and cooperation are continually unfolding. The identified challenges relate to the mobilisation capacity and fragility of institutions and resistance to change, while a need to deal with complexity and uncertainty remains present.

O presente trabalho teve como objetivos identificar as produções científicas sobre análise de políticas de saúde que utilizaram o modelo dos múltiplos fluxos de Kingdon e examinar as contribuições e os limites do modelo no estudo das políticas públicas de saúde, no contexto do SUS. Realizou-se uma revisão integrativa de publicações disponíveis nas bases de dados ProQuest, Portal de Periódicos e Banco de Teses e Dissertações da Capes e Scientific Electronic Library Online, com uso das palavras-chave Kingdon Model, multiple streams model (modelo dos múltiplos fluxos) e políticas públicas de saúde. Os critérios de inclusão foram: estudos completos em português e inglês, disponíveis on-line nas bases de dados; e análises de políticas públicas de saúde com uso do modelo Kingdon em experiências nacionais ou internacionais. Foram excluídos estudos de revisão e relatos de experiência. Foram levantados 4 teses de doutorado, 6 artigos e 2 dissertações de mestrado, publicados entre 1994 a 2009. O modelo de Kingdon mostrou-se aplicável a análises de políticas de saúde em diferentes sistemas políticos nacional e internacional, em períodos prolongados de tempo e na atuação dos governos. As contribuições desse modelo de análise para o SUS incluem: a) a incorporação da ambiguidade nas decisões; b) a valorização da consistência das ideias contidas nas propostas; c) a análise das diferentes interpretações sobre os problemas complexos da saúde brasileira pelos tomadores de decisão. Dentre os limites, aponte-se a ênfase na atuação dos atores em detrimento do marco institucional que delimita suas decisões.

Drawing on interview data from reading policy actors in California, Michigan, and Texas, this study applied Kingdon's (1984, 1995) multiple streams model to explain how the issue of reading became prominent on the agenda of state governments during the latter half of the 1990s. A combination of factors influenced the status of a state's reading policy agenda, including feedback from parents, teachers, and business groups; student achievement data; political pressure from the state administration; regional and national interest; a pervasive belief that reading is a building block for student success; and a widespread perception that the decline in reading achievement was symbolic of the failure of public schools. In addition, governors promoted reading to high agenda prominence by influencing which issues were placed on the decision agenda (agenda setting) and which alternatives were given serious attention (alternative specification). Finally, the findings suggest that the applicability of Kingdon's national-level model to the state level may depend on both the issue being examined and the participation of the state executive branch.

The incorporation of information systems in government agencies is a process that started several decades ago, but it has sped up its pace due to the evolution of information technology and communications. This process could be characterized as being responsive to specific or by-sector requirements without policies or guiding principles. To this date, national and local government agencies obtain, record and process information in order to accomplish their duties. Their ways illustrate a fragmented scheme, noticeably based on the criteria of a self-referenced, bureaucratic state. Accordingly, the state has a myriad of information systems which are frequently disconnected. In spite of this, their remarkable evolution is a valuable asset that policy makers should consider. When the concept of electronic government emerged in the late nineties, it came to bridge the gap in the creation of public policies regarding the use of state information technologies and communications. However, electronic government it is not just limited to technology applications; it also introduces an innovative view on state modernization. The latter is presented from an external point of view that adopts the citizen’s perspective and emphasizes the need for coordination and integration in inter-agency processes. The development of electronic government has two basic approaches: electronic government initiatives and electronic government policies. The first approach resembles the traditional incorporation of information systems in government agencies, where multiple electronic government initiatives respond to specific vertical requirements. The second alternative incorporates a holistic view intended to build a global model of State through an electronic government public policy. This chapter focuses on the political process leading to the development of an electronic government policy, and it is illustrated by the analysis of the political process that led to the development of electronic government policy in Uruguay. The analysis uses John W. Kingdon’s (1995) multiple streams model, a conceptual approach that is intended to explain the mainstreaming of policies in the governmental agenda. The chapter further proposes that the multiple streams model could be extremely useful as a framework to be used on an ex ante basis for advocates of electronic government policy making.

Using a multiple streams model, which is based on work by Kingdon, the study explains the quest to sell British Rail. It argues that privatization depends on the interplay of three streams or factors in opportune moments: problems, solutions, and politics. The key to understanding the process is coupling, the notion that the effects of these factors are not additive; rather, only a combination of all three at the same time can produce the desired outcome. The essential features of the answer to the privatization puzzle, therefore, are the institutional position and strategy of policy entrepreneurs who join the streams together and the effect of policy windows on impeding or enhancing the coupling chances of specific solutions. The study refines Kingdon's argument by specifying the conditions under which a policy may be in search of a rationale.

Abstract This article aims to present a brief reflection on the studies in the field of the public policy agenda. To this end, the text presents the main theoretical and methodological developments on the subject found in the international literature, with an emphasis on three fundamental contributions: the studies developed by Cobb and Elder in the 1970s; John Kingdon’s multiple streams model in the 1980s; and Baumgartner and Jones’ propositions from the 1990s until the present. Next, we seek to understand how policy agenda-setting studies have been developed in Brazil. To do so, we conduct a mapping of the Brazilian academic production, considering theses, dissertations, and articles published in journals between 2000 and 2018. In conclusion, we note the growing expansion of agenda studies in Brazil, and we draw attention to some of the characteristics of these works, such as the preferred policy areas and the theoretical and methodological frameworks favored by researchers, among other aspects.
