Journal Article
Evidencebased policy where is our theory of evidence
2010
Overview
This article critically analyses the concept of evidence in evidencebased policy, arguing that there is a key problem there is no existing practicable theory of evidence, one which is philosophicallygrounded and yet applicable for evidencebased policy. The article critically considers both philosophical accounts of evidence and practical treatments of evidence in evidencebased policy. It argues that both fail in different ways to provide a theory of evidence that is adequate for evidencebased policy. The article contributes to the debate about how evidence can and should be used to reduce contingency in science and in policy based on science.
