The public policies which are meant for specific segments of the society are known as:

  • A.Redistributive
  • B.Distributive
  • C.Regulatory
  • D.Capitalization

Answer: B

Public policies that benefit particular segments of society, such as farmers, the poor or small firms, by giving goods, services or subsidies to them are called distributive policies, as in the classification of Lowi. Redistributive policies shift resources from one group to another, as with progressive taxation, and regulatory policies set rules of conduct. Capitalization is not a type in this scheme. The key gives distributive, option B. Distributive policies are contrasted with regulatory policies, which restrict behaviour, and redistributive policies, which move resources between classes.
