Handbook of Social Policy Evaluation
Sinopsis
This Handbook uses methodologies and cases to
discover how and when to evaluate social policy,
and looks at the possible impacts of evaluation
on social policy decisions. The contributors
present a detailed analysis on how to conduct
social policy evaluation, how to be aware of
pitfalls and dilemmas and how to use evidence
effectively. Organized into three thematic
sections, this new resource includes
contributions from a variety of researchers from
a range of disciplines and countries. The first
section explores evaluation and examples of
methods used the second focuses on the
intersection between evaluation and policy-
making and the third delves into current social
policy in order to discover the use of
evaluation within central welfare state
policies. One conclusion found is that welfare
states are increasingly using evidence, but that
it varies from and within different welfare
areas. Researchers and students with an interest
in evaluation and social policy analysis, as well
as policy-makers and administrators in need of
evidence and analysis on the subject, will find
much value in this clear and precise overview of
the use and misuse of evidence.Contributors
