Through a rich analysis of the debates in Australia and the UK, it develops a nuanced analysis of the competing narratives that actors rely on to make sense of and argue about this issue, and documents how and to what effect they draw on scientific evidence to support their accounts.

This insightful work will interest scholars of interpretive policy studies, critical public health and science and technology studies. . . | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | 关键词 | Fatness; Overweight; Well-being; Public policy; Interpretive policy analysis; Narrative; Performance; Democ | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/978-1-137-58252-2 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-349-84502-6 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-137-58252-2 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2016 |
