Description

Explore the complexities of modern governance with Evidence-Based Policy: A Realist Perspective by Ray Pawson. Published by Sage Publishing, this academic text examines the widespread adoption of evidence-based policy making across the Western world. As major public initiatives increasingly require sustained evaluation, this book addresses the challenges of determining which interventions and inquiries truly stand the test of time. Rather than relying on isolated, one-off studies, Pawson argues for a longer-term view of policy research. This work is an essential resource for those studying academic sociology and political science, providing a deep look into how programs are researched, tested, and evaluated in contemporary society. Ideal for students and professionals in the social sciences, it offers a necessary perspective on the evolution of policy evaluation.
