The Politics of Evaluation of Social Programs
Meld, Murray B.
Social Work, 19, 4, 448-454, Jul 74
A brief analysis of the War on Poverty, Medicare, and the Family Assistance Plan shows that political factors influenced their design and their fate more than need or effectiveness. The author suggests that social workers have a role in promoting the wiser and wider use of research data for determining social policy. (Author)
