Policy Networks and the Problem of Governance in the Process of Public Policy Making in the Postmodern Democratic Society, particularly in Slovakia

Summary/Abstract: Policy Networks, a term used by politic sciences reflects the deepening and complexity of postmodern governance. Term network along with its six types offers a new interpretation of relationships among the state, civil society and market, emphasizing the horizontal instead of hierarchical approach to power, i.e. to the competence of decision-making. To look into today's governance, one has to examine the growing complexity of public activity. This complexity accrues from the instable socially-organizational environment of public activity and from the transformation of electoral policy into policy of problems. The above mentioned is elaborated on in the presented article.
