L’évaluation, nouvel avatar de la rationalisation administrative ? Les limites de l’import-export institutionnel

Abstract

Evaluation as a New Version of Administrative Rationalization ? The Limits of Institutional Import-Export. The emergence of policy evaluation is a sign of the transformation of french public space, but its integration in the french political and administrative System raises difficult questions. The U. S. model shows that evaluation is not a mere technical tool. It is also a means of communicating and negociating between policy actors. The role and scope of evaluation in France depends on its intellectual construction as well as on its compatibility with the logic of administrative institutions. A realistic development is based on evaluation being conceived mainly at present as an instrument of management control, and being an extension of existing control mechanisms.
