The purpose of this study is to achieve a comprehensive view of the applications, objectives and results, typology and causes of the formation of each of the new approaches to adaptive policy-making, innovative policy-making networks and policy-making (dissemination of innovative policy-making) through literature review. After the introduction of the step-by-step process or cycle of public policy, there was a lot of criticism of this approach. And in recent years, new approaches have been proposed, including the dissemination of innovation, adaptive policy-making, and the policy-making network to fill gaps in the step-by-step approach. This research shows that these approaches have specific applications, goals and areas by conducting a structured review by reviewing 181 articles including 75 articles on adaptive approach, 57 articles on network approach and 49 articles on innovation approach which have been emerged based on various contingent reasons. Therefore, none of these approaches can be used as a complete alternative to the step-by-step approach, and in using these approaches, the contingency conditions including the goals and results of applying the approach, areas of application and its applications should be considered
