Abstract
Different theories went to implementation in policy process to solve problems. There are many advantages and disadvantages to guide solving problems and could be combined and have a great potential by reaching a model. Theoretically speaking, how can we activate our ideas? How evolution of those ideas will help to get a model theory that can help people solving their problems? How to make them grow? How to they become part of the structure of our existence?
A condition is not necessarily a problem. Conditions defined as problems when we come to believe that we should do something about them. People redefine conditions as problems and pay attention to them when there are changes in indicators, focusing events and feedback. They redefine social conditions as problems by making comparison and framing.
Generating policy alternatives and proposals in communities of specialists resembles a process of biological natural selection. In policy “primeval soup,” many ideas appear, float around these communities and then fade. Both new and existing ideas confront one another and combine with in various ways, and finally some ideas survive and taken more seriously as important policies. There are some criteria for survival such as technical feasibility and value acceptability.
