Basic Problems
• Information– Common knowledge, instinct and bias can drive the most complex of
decisions, but public administrators are hired for their bias but for their expertise
– Dilemma of good information i.e. (1) difficulties to uncover and channel useful information to relevant decision-makers and (2) knowledge brings power
– Neutral competence vs political accountability• Values
– Decision making is inherently subjective– It includes questions, weighs preferences, value-laden process– The need of political support from either formal institutions (top
level of executive, congress etc.) or public

#1 Rational decision making
• Efficiency is the highest value• Goals of any activity is to get the biggest
return for any investment, to get the most bang for the buck
• Rests on system theory: input-process-output• Basic steps (define goals, identify alternatives,
calculate consequences, decide, and begin again)

#2 Bargaining
• Different view of rationality• Decision making involves conflict, negotiation,
persuasion and individuals• Incrementalism (Lindblom), to conduct limited
analysis and to bargain over decision to attract political support

Graham Allison on the Cuban Missile crisis
• Model IDecision making guided by national position and interests
• Model IIOrganisational processes, simply an SOP of bureaucracies on both sides
• Model IIIBureaucratic politics perspective, decision as a resultant of various bargaining games among players in the national government

#3 Participative Decision Making
• Calls at the most general level of participation by those who will be affected by the decision
• Those who entitled to participate– The employees of the organisation making the decision– The persons whom organisation serves or regulates (the
clientele)– The taxpayer whose pocketbooks the decision will affect– The whole public or the voting public of the country
• NIMBY phenomenon

Public Choice
• Public choice theory argues that public officials are self-interested, which leads them to avoid risk and to promote their careers, by enlarging their programmes and increasing their budget
• Privatisation, public functions to be contracted out to the private sector

Problems and Limitations
• Each approach is single-mindedly focused, not adequate for complex reality of the political world
• Each approach has its own virtues and idiosyncratic problems
• Shared limitations:– Uncertainty, due to complexity of environment– Information pathologies, with regard to bureaucracy
structure– Crisis, upsetting the normal decision making and
increase the difficulty of many potential strategies
