Foreign policy analysis (FPA) seeks to better understand how the foreign policy of a state is formulated not only by government actors but also other stakeholders. These can be domestic players, such as political parties, politicians, government ministers, foreign and defense ministries, but also the economic sector, think-tanks, and non-state actors, or outside actors such as intergovernmental organizations (EU, ASEAN, NATO, or the World Bank), or governments and leaders of other countries. One focus is the decision-making process within governments, domestic and international constraints, the drafting process of foreign policies, their implementation, and their public defense against domestic or international critique.
