Abstract
In Part 2, we present seven evaluation case studies which we analyse with reference to the concepts, frameworks and issues introduced in Part 1. We also consider the tensions that arise in the practice of evaluation. These case studies do not follow a similar format. Each illuminates different facets of the evaluation process and provides an opportunity to problematise the design and implementation of evaluations and to suggest ways in which readers might undertake evaluative inquiries of their own, which is our focus in Part 3.
