This book explores the use of evidence in different government ministries, and how it affects policy success and failure in Denmark. It analyses the ways in which public administrators collect and link evidence to policy-making in the areas of public budgeting employment and primary education, highlighting how ministers in the three policy areas utilise evidence in varying ways. Denmark makes a particularly interesting case study, characterised by a strong administrative capacity for evidence use. The book also offers important insights into evidence-based policymaking in a non-Anglophone context. It will appeal to scholars and students of public administration and public policy.
