But how do we know whether research makes any difference to these societies – is the impact constructive or destructive? This book is the first to systematically explore this question through a series of case studies written by those on the front lines of applied research. It offers clear and logical ways to understand the positive or negative role that research, or any other aid intervention, might have in developing societies affected by armed conflict, political unrest and/or social violence.Text1 digital file (346 p. : ill.)application/pdfenEVALUATIONNORTHERN IRELANDPOLITICAL UNRESTVIOLENCEARMED CONFLICTSOUTH AFRICAHIVAIDSEVALUATOROUTCOME MAPPINGNEPALKENYAARGENTINAACCOUNTABILITYSRI LANKADARFURRESEARCHTHEORYMETHODOLOGYETHICSABUSEEXPLOITATIONINDIAEMPOWERMENTFUNDINGSOUTH ASIAAFGHANISTANEvaluation in the extreme : research, impact and politics in violently divided societiesIDRC Book
