Dr. Raul P. Lejano teaches public policy at the Hong Kong University of Science & Technology and is also professor emeritus at New York University. He has published extensively on policy analysis. In his first book, Frameworks for Policy Analysis: Merging Text and Context (Routledge), he describes both positivist and non-positivist modes of analysis. Most recently, he has employed particular interpretive methods (i.e., narrative and discourse analysis) to study environmental dilemmas, as in his co-authored book, The Power of Narrative: Climate Skepticism and the Deconstruction of Science (Oxford University Press), co-authored article, "A hermeneutic approach to explaining and understanding public controversies," in the Journal of Public Administration Research and Theory, and book chapter, "Postpositivism in the Policy Process" in the Routledge Handbook of Public Policy, among others.
