Evaluative Inquiry for Systemic Change: A Guide to Shift Beyond Fixes to Lasting Value
by Emily F. Gates Pablo VidueiraIn a world where social, ecological, health, and other problems are influenced by multiple, intersecting systems, why do most interventions target single-factor solutions? Why does so much evaluation settle for incremental change, and how could it contribute instead to deeper, lasting, transformative change? Authors Emily F. Gates and Pablo Vidueira make two interconnected arguments in this book: they critique the "fixed" approach of traditional program evaluation and policy analysis, and they advance an alternative approach centered on changing systems and developing the value of efforts toward change. They demonstrate that systemic change that embeds evaluative inquiry is a theoretically supported, practical way to work toward fundamental social change with lasting impact.
Evangelising the Nation: Religion and the Formation of Naga Political Identity (Transition in Northeastern India)

Events of Art and Education in Post-climate Times (Routledge Studies in Sustainability)
by Carl Anders SäfströmThis book concerns the urgency of thinking and acting in response to climate change through art and education. While both fields are often connected through disciplinary dialogues, climate change prompts a greater need to unite artists and educators around common environmental problems and goals.By staging transcritical engagements, this book draws out common and uncommon disciplinary perspectives that can generate new ways of thinking, living, and doing in the Anthropocene.
