Abstract

This paper presents the principal results of this research and is divided into four parts. The first concerns the quantitative analysis of the body of research, which enables the authors to pinpoint those studies which deal specifically with the chosen topic. The second part consists of an analysis of the content of the selected research according to the sequential model used to analyze public policy, i.e. starting with the construction of the problem and ending with an evaluation of the measures introduced to solve the problem. The third provides a discussion on the overall studies compared to the transport policy in France. Finally, the last section will provide concluding remarks.

Public policy

Public policy is an institutionalized proposal or a decided set of elements like laws, regulations, guidelines, and actions to solve or address relevant and real-world problems, guided by a conception and often implemented by programs. The implementation of public policy is known as public administration. Public policy can be considered to be the sum of a government's direct and indirect activities and has been conceptualized in a variety of ways. They are created and/or enacted on behalf of the public typically by a government.

Policy analysis

Policy analysis or public policy analysis is a technique used in the public administration sub-field of political science to enable civil servants, nonprofit organizations, and others to examine and evaluate the available options to implement the goals of laws and elected officials. People who regularly use policy analysis skills and techniques on the job, particularly those who use it as a major part of their job duties are generally known by the title Policy Analyst.

Construction

Construction is a general term meaning the art and science to form objects, systems, or organizations, and comes from Latin constructio (from com- "together" and struere "to pile up") and Old French construction. To construct is the verb: the act of building, and the noun is construction: how something is built, the nature of its structure. In its most widely used context, construction covers the processes involved in delivering buildings, infrastructure, industrial facilities, and associated activities through to the end of their life.
