Abstract

This academic article aims to analyze the limitations of public policy models, which were constructed in a variety of ways, and the proposal for using the postmodern theory in policy analysis. Based on the analysis of public policy models, a variety of public policy models is caused by the addition of the original idea, an argument, or a refutation of the original model. Among a variety of public policy models, there is the limitation that one model may not be able to be completely used for policy formulation or analysis, especially when considering in the context of policymaking in Thailand that must be formulated in accordance with the national strategy and clear policy making guidelines. As a result, policy models are unable to analyze policies comprehensively or accurately. Therefore, public policy analysis requires the postmodern theory, emphasizing the integration of theoretical concepts that must not get too attached to the models. Also, attention must be paid to the phenomenon and the context of public administration in that area.
