520 _a"Long Term Perspectives in Evaluation is the first book to advocate the virtues of a long-term perspective for policy evaluation as well as to show how evaluations can take a longer time perspective than they usually do. To get there, it is necessary to understand the decision-making context of evaluations and study the obstacles and the resistance towards long-term perspectives - as knowledge of that will lay the ground for more effective advocacy. The book is divided into three parts: Part One examines different aspects of methodology and methods. In Part Two, authors present case studies of long-term evaluations, examine their own experiences of such evaluations and discuss difficulties, challenges, and lessons learned. Cases discussed include: education sector reforms in Sweden, local governance reforms in Denmark, policy interventions in southern Italy and Brazil and Paris declaration principles of aid effectiveness such as Swedish aid to Tanzania, Vietnam, Laos and Sri Lanka. Finally Part Three sees authors turns to a set of contextual issues and concluding remarks. Bringing together a rich collection of insights and a renowned group of experts, Long Term Perspectives in Evaluation: Increasing Relevance and Utility, constitutes a significant landmark in the field"--
