This research aims to identify and elucidate the thematic network of an organization’s public policy-making model, grounded in the social construction framework of political groups, through a qualitative approach. Methodologically, the study is qualitative in nature and employs thematic analysis. The statistical population includes 10 professors and experts in the field of public policy. The sample size was determined using the snowball sampling technique, with interviews continuing until theoretical saturation was achieved. Semi-structured interviews were utilized for data collection, and data analysis was performed via thematic analysis using MAXQDA software.The research findings yielded a total of 717 primary codes, categorized into 59 basic themes, seven organizing themes, and one global theme. The results revealed that the thematic network comprises seven dimensions: 1) the socio-cultural context of policy formation, 2) the intellectual foundations of policymakers, 3) symbolic and meaning-making concepts, 4) the power and hegemony of political groups, 5) the construction of policy reality, 6) the ideological transformation of policymakers and political groups, and 7) the social construction of policy. This model advances Schneider and Ingram’s theory of the social construction of target populations from the level of describing outcomes to the level of explaining the components that shape social construction, providing a practical framework for mitigating the subjective biases of policymakers.
