Reviews

'To conclude, chapters vary in how they investigate expert knowledge: whether its relation to informing policy making, the processes of knowledge exchange and dissemination, or as a source of power...Finally, as mentioned, the volume offers a rich collection of case studies across a number of different IOs, on quite diverse policy areas.' Cleo Davies, University of Edinburgh, Governance (Wiley)
