In the past, Public Policy Implementation (PPI) was regarded as a mechanical process that would be successfully carried out if public policy making process was done properly, and thus public policy making was focused on. However, recently in R.O.K., a number of serious problems arose in the process of PPI. Social conflicts and struggles in the process of PPI have resulted in the public budget wastage of tens of millions to tens of billions of in USD terms, and have often threatened the societal security. This paper analyzes the diverse theories on PPI and suggests a comprehensive framework of successful PPI. Within such a framework, this paper argues that the following are especially crucial: i) forbiddance on political abuse, ii) autonomy of relevant civilians, iii) emotional management in public policy, and iv) social capitals in public policy.
