A Decision Analysis Approach to Policy Issues: The NAFTA Case

Roberto Ley‐Borrás

Review of Policy Research, 2005, vol. 22, issue 5, 687-708

Abstract: This article presents decision analysis concepts and tools that can help scholars and decision makers to get a better understanding of policy issues. It describes the structure of knowledge maps for representing uncertain elements in policy issues, and decision frames for uncovering the information elements behind conflicting positions and helps participants find a common ground for agreement. The article also presents the application of these techniques to issues arising from the North America Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA).
