Abstract
Abstract The paper offers a refined and systematic concept of state-business relations based on the ‘policy network’ idea. The major dimensions of policy networks are presented as (1) number and type of actors, (2) function of networks, (3) structure, (4) institutionalization, (5) rules of conduct, (6) power relations, (7) actor strategies. Certain popular conventional policy making arrangements (e. g. sectoral corporation, sponsored pluralism, clientelism) are examined in terms of the network dimensions.

Examination of three distinct images of the policy process finds that the corporatist image does not apply to Britain, which is best described by drawing on elements of the iron triangle and cabinet government images and some of the complexity of the issue network image.
