Question and answer for my course

Question 1

1. Describe the knowledge structure. In your answer, define the knowledge structure, drawing on the theoretical framework used and developed in class, and refer to all of the main books covered in this course (for the weeks where we relied on journal articles or other documents, your answer should draw on these as well). Your answer should include the key actors (dominant and challengers), organizations, and institutions, as well as the dominant and oppositional policy tendencies (i.e., the views/ideas of challengers). Include also a discussion of the relative importance/power of state and non-state actors. This question is worth 60% of your exam grade.
