Evidence-Based Policy: A Realist Perspective (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781412910606)

Looking at the spread of evidence-based policy making across the Western world, this book examines the methodological assumptions that lie behind this drive for government departments, academic research projects and NGOs to adopt an 'evidence-based' approach, when so little has been done to ask what works in an evidence-based context.
