Policy lives with us. However, we struggle to bring science to policy. Why?
To analyse policy, we must imagine a space. We must conceptualise the boundary and mechanics of that space. So, who carries the tools of analysis and who has the sight of empirics? We want them carried by the same person, yet they are not. We find the former in physics and the latter in sociology and politics. How do we manage that challenge? The answer is interdisciplinarity, and that is a hurdle to our universities.
