The use of contemporary oral history to improve public policies and
programs is a growing, transdisciplinary practice. Indispensable
for students and practitioners, Practicing Oral History to Improve
Public Policies and Programs is the first book to define the
practice, explain how policy-makers use it, show how it relates to
other types of oral history, and provide guidance on the ethics and
legalities involved. Packed with case studies from disciplines as
diverse as medicine, agriculture, and race relations, as well as
many examples from the author's own work, this book provides an
essential overview of the current state of the field within oral
history for public policy and a complete methodology for the
process of designing and implementing an oral history project. The
comprehensive How To section demonstrates how to use the practice
to advance the reader's career, their chosen discipline and the
public interest, whether their field is in oral history or in
public policy. This book is an important resource for oral
historians, fledgling or experienced, who are keen to find new
applications and funding for their work, as well as for
professionals in the public and not-for-profit sectors who want to
learn to use oral history to improve their own policies and
programs.
