Product Description
The Handbook of Public Policy Evaluation provides the reader with insight and alternative ways of resolving controversies related to problems at the societal level. This systematic, win-win evaluation involves choosing policy alternative that can enable conservatives, liberals, and others to come out ahead of their best initial expectations simultaneously. This book deals with many aspects of public policy evaluation such as methods, examples, studies, professionalism, perspectives, concepts, trends, substance, theory, applications, dispute resolution, interdisciplinary interaction and bibliographies.
Stuart S. Nagel has broken new ground in several areas of policy analysis. Research from an outstanding group of contributing authors places an emphasis on evaluating public policies that relate to economic, technology, social, political, international and legal problems rather than on evaluation specific narrowly focused programs. The book combines the variety of an edited book with integration and coherence of an authored book. No other book exists that pulls together numerous essays like this one, whereby providing a rich variety of insights, ideas, and applications. This book will be of interest to professors, students, practitioners, public administrators, policy analysts, and others interested in public policy evaluation.
