Today we are witnessing an increased use of data visualization in society. Across domains such as work, education and the news, various forms of graphs, charts and maps are used to explain, convince and tell stories. In an era in which more and more data are produced and circulated digitally, and digital tools make visualization production increasingly accessible, it is important to study the conditions under which such visual texts are generated, disseminated and thought to be of societal benefit. This book is a contribution to the multi-disciplined and multi-faceted conversation concerning the forms, uses and roles of data visualization in society. Do data visualizations do 'good' or 'bad'? Do they promote understanding and engagement, or do they do ideological work, privileging certain views of the world over others? The contributions in the book engage with these core questions from a range of disciplinary perspectives.

... The "whole-of-system" approach is usually adopted when the strategic goals of government's innovation initiatives are seen to "go beyond efficiency, effectiveness and economy, and include political and social objectives such as trust in government, social inclusion, community regeneration, community wellbeing and sustainability" (Grimsley and Meehan, 2007, p. 134). This approach calls for shifting the focus of the evaluation from inputs and outputs to outcomes and impacts that are not normally indicated as the direct objectives of an initiative, but rather as societal objectives to which a successful initiative should contribute, such as economic growth, jobs, democracy, inclusion, quality of life, etc." (Verleye, 2010). ...
