This book is a critical guide to conducting investigations under
time- and resource-pressured conditions, equipping readers with the
key skills and approaches for research designed to influence or
inform development policies. Unlike a simple 'how to' guide,
Research Skills for Policy and Development also provides a critique
of various methods and situates these approaches within 'real life'
organisational settings, enabling those working in or studying
development to locate, evaluate and use relevant information
quickly but rigorously.
The successor to Finding Out Fast (SAGE, 1998) it reflects the
changes in development management theories and practice over the
last seven years, and includes new material and advice on critical
use of the web as a resource and research tool. It is essential
reading for development managers in NGOs and public sector agencies
as well as students of development management and development
studies more generally.
