Confronting Values in Policy Analysis questions the pursuit of `value neutrality" in policy analysis, and argues for the integration of empirical and normative methods of analysis. The contributors analyse the emerging ethical issues, the practice of policy analysis, theoretical and methodological issues involved in the normative work of policy analysts, and the central questions of ethical responsibility.
