‘This volume provides very comprehensive coverage of the subject.’
– International Review of Administrative Sciences

For governments to be successful in achieving their objectives, they need to select the correct policy instruments. This volume addresses the role of policy instruments in achieving policy objectives.

Policy Evaluation provides a systematic assessment of the impact that public policy evaluations have on the governance of democratic societies. This book emphasises the impacts of policy evaluations on the formulation, implementation and accountability functions of governments. At all three phases of the policy cycle, there is a need for coherent and systematic evaluation. This book demonstrates how such evaluations can be conducted and the opportunities for their subsequent utilization.

31 articles, dating from 1989 to 1993 Contributors: E. Albaek, M. Bamberger, M. Howlett, B. Jenkins, S.B. Kamerman, J.A. Wysong
