Product Description
Conducting Interpretive Policy Analysis (Qualitative Research Methods)
<p>In this new and timely book in the Qualitative Research Methods<b> </b>series, author Dvora Yanow outlines a more interpretive approach to policy analysis. She begins by describing what interpretive approaches are, and what they can mean to policy analysis. Chapters on symbolic language, symbolic objects, and symbolic acts help shift the frame of reference from thinking about values as costs and benefits to thinking about them more as a set of meanings. Finally, the book concludes with a chapter on how to move from fieldwork to deskwork and textwork. </p>
