Evaluation in the Post-Truth World delves into the intricate interplay between the nature of evaluative knowledge, the escalating demand for evaluation and other forms of research evidence in decision-making, and the pervasive phenomena of antiscience sentiments intertwined with illiberal tendencies of the contemporary era. Rather than providing a mere checklist for navigating the post-truth landscape, the esteemed experts featured herein aim to foster awareness and introspection within policy circles regarding the factors that shape our assessment and policy-related endeavors in such a complex and challenging environment. Join us on this enlightening journey alongside the editor and contributors, as we explore three guiding questions that will aid in identifying specific challenges, while also offering valuable tools to confront and overcome them:
How are policy problems conceptualized in the current political climate?
What is the relationship between expertise and decision-making in today's political circumstances?
How complex has evaluation become as a social practice?
Evaluation in the Post-Truth World holds immense value for evaluation practitioners at both the program and project levels, as well as policy analysts and scholars with a keen interest in the applications of evaluation in the realm of public policy. Within its pages, readers will find invaluable insights and practical strategies to navigate the complexities of the post-truth era and make informed decisions that contribute to positive social change.
