  • Abstract
    Exploring policy conflicts and debates is one way in which policy analysts can certify that their research agendas incorporate the questions and problems that their clients, policy makers, are interested in. This paper describes the application of two methods for conflict exploration, namely analysis of options and argumentative analysis, using a case study on water resource management in the Philippines. It shows that both methods offer complementary insights that are helpful in formulating an agenda for policy analysis activities.
