UNDERSTANDING POLICY

The last chapter provided guidance on making decisions in an uncertain world. This chapter provides maxims to guide policy decisions – decisions made by an actor, perhaps a government official, nonprofit leader, or parent on behalf of a group of people. What are sound bases for making such decisions, and for evaluating them? Even if you are not responsible for making policy decisions, the maxims in this chapter can help you better assess the decisions of those who do. At a more profound level, they will help you better understand the world around you, and help you crystalize your thinking on what is good for society.
