Researching policy and learning: perspectives on complexity.

The author comments on various papers related to the complexity of policy research. He decides to examines the similarities of the research ways of these papers to other research projects. He argues that the papers of Local Learning and Skills demonstrate clearly the problems of policy-makers, which is not present in the research papers of Transforming Learning Cultures in Further Education due to complexity. However, both projects show that policy-making make a real difference to learning.
