{"product_id":"climate-adaptation-policy-and-evidence-peter-tangney-9781138284814","title":"Climate Adaptation Policy and Evidence: Understanding the Tensions between Politics and Expertise in Public Policy","description":"\u003cp\u003eEvidence-based policymaking is often promoted within liberal democracies as the best means for government to balance political values with technical considerations. Under the evidence-based mandate, both experts and non-experts often assume that policy problems are sufficiently tractable and that experts can provide impartial and usable advice to government so that problems like climate change adaptation can be effectively addressed; at least, where there is political will to do so. This book compares the politics and science informing climate adaptation policy in Australia and the UK to understand how realistic these expectations are in practice. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Tangney\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138284815\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138284814\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/13\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 258\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.69d","brand":"Peter Tangney","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48457826009343,"sku":"9781138284814","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_62dc526b-530f-4bc2-8e98-c5325b664f72.jpg?v=1777401176","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/climate-adaptation-policy-and-evidence-peter-tangney-9781138284814","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
