Our understanding of how well it is working, however, remains limited to very specific policy sectors - even though this information is essential to policy makers in Canada and beyond. \u003cem\u003eOverpromising and Underperforming?\u003c\/em\u003e offers a deeper analysis of the use of new accountability mechanisms, paying particular attention to areas in which federal spending power is used.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the first volume to specifically analyse the accountability features of Canadian intergovernmental agreements and to do so systematically across policy sectors. Drawing on the experiences of other federal systems and multilevel governance structures, the contributors investigate how public reporting has been used in various policy fields and the impact it has had on policy-making and intergovernmental relations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Graefe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1442613343\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781442613348\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/08\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 339\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.80d","brand":"Peter Graefe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44056997658879,"sku":"9781442613348","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_da46f859-7fc3-4134-81d9-a23b09cf0793.jpg?v=1685044441","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/overpromising-and-underperforming-peter-graefe-9781442613348","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
