Democratic evaluation brings a way of thinking about evaluation's
role in society and in particular, its role in strengthening social
justice. Yet the reality of applying it, and what happens when it
is applied particularly outside the West, is unclear. Set in South
Africa, a newly formed democracy in Southern Africa, the book
affords an in-depth journey that immerses a reader into the
realities of evaluation and its relation to democracy. The book
starts with the broader introductory chapters that set the scene
for more detailed ones which bring thorough insights into national
government, local government, and civil societies' experience of
evaluation, democratic evaluation and their understanding of how it
contributes to strengthening democracy (or not). A teaching case,
the book concludes by providing guiding questions that encourage
reflection, discussion and learning that ultimately aims to inform
practice and theory.
