AnnotationA critical look at the developing practice of evaluation in social work, placing it in the context of the changing political economy of social welfare. Concern is expressed that evaluation has become a mechanism for managerial and financial control, rather than for change in the direction of equality and justice. The authors discuss evaluation and measuring performance in ways which will contribute to the development of 'good' practice.
