This important collection presents a radical reconception of the
place of knowledge in contemporary policymaking in Europe, based
not on assumptions about evidence, expertise or experience but on
the different forms that knowledge takes. Knowledge is embodied in
people, inscribed in documents and instruments, and enacted in
specific circumstances. Empirical case studies of health and
education policy in different national and international contexts
demonstrate the essential interdependence of different forms and
phases of knowledge. They illustrate the ways in which knowledge is
mobilised and resisted, and draw attention to key problems in the
processing and transformation of knowledge in policy work. This
novel theoretical framework offers real benefits for policymakers,
academics in public policy, public administration, management
studies, sociology, education, public health and social work, and
those with a practical interest in education and health and related
fields of public policy.
