%T From the Garbage Can Model to the Theory of Recycling: Reconsidering Policy Formulation as a Process of Struggling to Define a Policy Statement %A Zittoun, Philippe %J Annals of the University of Bucharest / Political science series %N 2 %P 39-59 %V 15 %D 2013 %@ 1582-2486 %> https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:0168-ssoar-398032 %X One of the main paradoxes produced by the garbage can model is the empirical observation that a proposal does not necessarily appear through problem-solving but by a coupling process where a proposal searches for a problem. This empirical observation looks like a paradox for those who consider that the meaning of a policy proposal is fundamental during the policy process. This article suggests a new way to combine the garbage can model with the argumentative turn by taking into account both of them: the coupling process between a solution and a problem highlighted by Cohen, March and Olsen and the gluing process that allows the argumentative strategy which contributes to give meaning to a proposal. %C MISC %G en %9 Zeitschriftenartikel %W GESIS - http://www.gesis.org %~ SSOAR - http://www.ssoar.info
