'With 'Truth and Post-Truth in Public Policy - interpreting the arguments', Frank Fischer offers us a powerful framework of critical analysis to unravel the complex thread that has brought us to the current and extreme situation of strong social confrontation ... It is a book that not only feeds the debate, but our hopes.' Rosana Boullosa, Critical Policy Studies 'Fischer guides readers through a systematic and artfully argued application of the interpretive policy framework, offering not only a nuanced discussion about post-truth but also a tour of the workings of the framework (e.g., the concepts of social cognition, plausibility structures, truth regimes, and narrative arguments). As such, this is both a contribution to scholarship and a useful text for those seeking to learn more about the framework itself. Readers will benefit from Fischer's multi-disciplinary and critical theoretical perspective, sharpened over a career of provocative research about public participation and expert knowledge in policymaking. Above all, the book is a highly enjoyable and fluid read that not only provides an appraisal of where policy research currently sits in understanding post-truth but also establishes a roadmap for that research in the coming decades.'

The file format PDF always displays a book page identically on any hardware. This makes PDF suitable for complex layouts such as those used in textbooks and reference books (images, tables, columns, footnotes). Unfortunately, on the small screens of e-readers or smartphones, PDFs are rather annoying, requiring too much scrolling.
This eBook uses Adobe-DRM, a „hard” copy protection. If the necessary requirements are not met, unfortunately you will not be able to open the eBook. You will therefore need to prepare your reading hardware before downloading.
