The power of case study is its insistence on opening up rather than suppressing the complexity of social programs, on documenting multiple voices and exploring contested viewpoints. In this way, case study resists the trend towards evaluations that simply focus on what works, that reduce the complexity of social life to a single narrative, and to formulations that strip out most of what matters. Now more than ever, as government policies and programs orientate to global economic crisis and its impact on the lives of citizens and communities, we require evaluations that resist information loss and produce richness. 410 0$aAdvances in program evaluation ;$vv. 15. 606 $aCase method$xEvaluation 606 $aResearch$xMethodology 606 $aEducation$xEvaluation 615 0$aCase method$xEvaluation. 615 0$aResearch$xMethodology. 615 0$aEducation$xEvaluation. 676 $a371.2 702 $aRussell$b Jill 702 $aGreenhalgh$b Trisha 702 $aKushner$b Saville 801 0$bMiFhGG 801 1$bMiFhGG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910797151403321 996 $aCase study evaluation$93870725 997 $aUNINA
