Processes That Regulate the System – Multiple Streams Approach in Political Science Research
Abstract
The article discusses the Multiple Streams Approach (MSA) and the pitfalls of its use. The main questions concern the new quality and conditions of MSA application in research on regulatory processes, with particular emphasis on the EU level. The article discusses the issue of terminology, the foundation and assumptions of the approach, elements of the research structure, and the use of concept to date. The author highlights the elements emphasized by the MSA and the need to operationalize all components of the framework.
