The economic revolution embraced by neo-liberals and neo-conservatives is paralleled by a governance revolution in those same institutions which were designed to protect us from historical swings and ideological roundabouts. Our public institutions - for the most part the public sector and its professional groups - in the eyes of some provided stability, while for others they were a brake on change. Now, however, they have become conduits for political change and reform. We live in an institutional world now dubbed the New Public Management (NPM). In this new landscape evaluators might have to think afresh about how to position ourselves in relation to institutional ethics and the pursuit of social justice. In this volume contributors give us a start in thinking through such a repositioning, some within the values framework of NPM, others as external observers.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 156mmItem Width: 11mmItem Weight: 415gContributor: Saville Kushner (Edited by), Nigel Norris (Edited by)Author: Saville KushnerGenre: Law & PoliticsBook Series: Advances in Program EvaluationRelease Year: 2007 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
