Prince Analysis Steps Identify Necessary Actions Identify Key Players Estimate Position (-5 to +5) Estimate Power (1 to 5) Estimate Priority (1 to 5) Calculate Probabilities Formulate Prince Strategies Ex. 9.1 Ex. 9.2 Ex. 9.3 Ex. 9.4 Chapter 10
Step 1: Describing the Policy to be Implemented Be sure it is a policy and not a goal Is it a federal, state or local policy? Determine if it is a legislative, administrative or money Cannot be a judicial decision
Step 2: Identify Players Government Units in the United States: 3,000 Counties 19,000 municipalities + 43,000 special districts 65,000 total government units
How To Select Players Ask players, experts, and stakeholders. Legislatures: They affect how a bill becomes a law at your geographic area Aggregation problems with legislative bodies If not legislative, must be administrative Interest groups can be important especially for new policies Watch out for dogs Note: Look at 9.2 -explain when to use individuals vs. groups -National level-aggregate mostly, individuals on exec. Level, or head of depts. -State level-same as above -Local Level-There may be lots of individuals on a local level

Step 3:Estimating Issue Position Empirical - quotes Deductive Principles Special Interest Players (3-5) Politicians, Legislative Bodies, Government Officials (0-2) Budget cost predispose toward opposition Note: Look at 9.3 -Special interest groups could have negative position i.e. with teen pregnancy, Christian Coalition would have a negative position on distributing condoms in schools, whereas Planned Parenthood would be positive.
Step 4: Estimating Power Specific to Issues Players with Veto Power: 4 or 5 Legislatures President, Governors, Mayors, etc. Non-veto-players: 3, 2, or 1 Sources of Power Official Position Money Numbers (voters) Expertise
Step 5: Estimating Priority Single issue player: high on relevant issue Multiple issue player: low to moderate on most issues Changes quickly in either direction Frequency of statements are key
Step 6: Calculating Calculation 1: Issue position X Power X Priority=Prince Score When Issue Position is 0, Power X Priority=(Prince Score) Prince Scores in parenthesis are neutral scores Calculation 2: Sum of all positive scores plus ½ of neutral scores Calculation 3: Sum of all possible scores ignoring signs and parenthesis Calculation 2/Calculation 3=Probability of Support
