Abstract: Cilj je ovoga rada prikazati i analizirati istraživanje javnih politika u kontekstu razvoja hrvatske politologije te odnos istraživanja javnih politika unutar političke znanosti s njihovim zahvaćanjem kroz druge znanosti i međudisciplinarna područja u Hrvatskoj. Nakon uvoda se u prvome dijelu rada određuju javne politike te se prikazuje razvoj teorijskog diskursa koji se formirao oko javnih politika kao racionalnog sklopa državne intervencije u društvo koji teži dobrom upravljanju. U drugome se dijelu analizira i tumači kontekstualno specifičan razvoj istraživanja javnih politika u okvirima hrvatske politologije. U trećem dijelu taj se razvoj dovodi u vezu s primjerima istraživanja i poučavanja javnih politika u drugim institucionalnim žarištima i disciplinarnim diskursima koji akademski zahvaćaju javne politike. U zaključku se ocjenjuje stanje istraživanja javnih politika te se skiciraju mogući budući pravci razvoja istraživanja i akademskog utjecanja na stvaranje javnih politika unutar i preko granica politologije. Naša je teza – ili, točnije, vrijednosno vođena projekcija – da javnim politikama kao teorijski i metodologijski konstituiranom predmetu istraživanja i politološkoj poddisciplini predstoji, kao praktičan izazov, snažnija međudisciplinarna suradnja izvan okvira političke znanosti u združenom rješavanju relevantnih javnih problema političke zajednice.
The aim of this paper is to present and analyze public policy research in the context of the development of Croatian political science, while also probing the relationship between public policy research within political science and its application through other sciences and interdisciplinary areas in Croatia. After the introduction, in the first part of the paper, the concept of public policy is delineated and the development of the theoretical discourse that was formed around public policies as a rational system of state intervention in society that strives for good governance is presented. In the second part, the context-specific development of public policy research within the framework of Croatian political science is analyzed and interpreted. In the third part, this development is linked to the examples of policy relevant research and teaching in other academic institutional foci and discourses that deal with public policies. In the conclusion, the current state of public policy research is evaluated and possible future directions of research development and academic influence on public policy making are outlined within and across the borders of political science. Our thesis – or, more precisely, a value-driven projection – is that in front of public policy as a theoretically and methodologically constituted subject of research and the political science sub-discipline, stronger interdisciplinary cooperation outside the framework of political science asserts itself as a major practical challenge ahead in the joint task of solving relevant public problems in the political community.
