The Politics and Practice of Truth: Critical and Interpretive Perspectives on the Relationship Between Evidence and Policy in Post-Truth Times

Abstract

Blithe assertions about the value of certain forms of knowledge in public policy ignore fundamental differences in context and capacity, where new debates about ‘post-truth’ carry a different legacy and salience. This panel will explore the overlap between literatures on evidence/knowledge, administrative cultures and policy capacity.
