Description

This book examines the rising demand for evaluation within European local services. As reforms become more frequent due to New Public Management doctrine and severe austerity policies, understanding the impact of these changes is vital for effective governance. This text addresses the need to increase service quality while reducing costs at the sub-national level. Positioned at the intersection of local services and evaluation research, the work focuses on practical lessons learned from real-world evaluations. It provides the necessary framework to help readers utilize evaluation-generated knowledge for evidence-based policy making. Whether you are studying public management or working in local government, this resource offers insights into managing the complexities of modern public and social service reforms.
