More recently, we have seen increasing demands for evidence-based policymaking (EP). This article critically discusses the political implications of PM and EP by regarding them as particular forms of governing. Accordingly, PM may be viewed as a form of governing hinging on the regulated and accountable forms of freedom exercised by public administrators. In contrast, EP may be regarded as a technocratic and potentially authoritarian form of governing depending on quite narrow and exclusive forms of knowledge production. EP then seems to be directly at odds with PM and sits uneasily with neoliberal forms of rule. - Reproduced.  aPerformance appraisal  aPolicy making  aPublic administration  aAmerican Review of Public Administration  a108364  c108359d108359  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 45, Issue no: 2pAR108824r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
