    About

    This book presents an academically rigorous yet practical guide to understanding how knowledge, policy and power interact to promote or prevent change. It offers a power analysis perspective on the knowledge policy process, illustrated with rich empirical examples from the field of international development. It identifies and provides practical guidance to address common challenges to improving the space between knowledge and policy, such as difficulties in analysing political context, persistent asymmetric relationships between actors, ignorance of the contributions of different types of knowledge and misconceptions of the roles of intermediary organisations. Most importantly, the book helps readers develop strategies to negotiate the complexity of the knowledge policy interface more effectively so as to contribute to policy dialogues, influence policy change and implement policies and programmes more effectively. It offers novel theoretical insights and methodological approaches which are relevant to a broad range of policy arenas and to a wide audience including academics, practitioners and students.
