Abstract

Health policy analysis has been the focus of attention of a number of scholars, health practitioners and policy makers. However, there has been much less attention given to how to do policy analysis, what research designs, theories or methods best inform policy analysis. This study begins by looking at the health policy environment, and some of the challenges to researching this highly complex phenomenon. It focuses on research in middle and low income countries. Attention is drawn to the roles of the policy researcher and the importance of reflexivity and researcher's position in the research process and finally ways of advancing the field of health policy analysis is discussed.
