Abstract

The European Commission increasingly evaluates its programs through microeconometrics approaches, aiming at a more rigorous quantification of results. This article traces the integration of these approaches into EU cohesion policy, and their historic implementation. It shows how the actors in charge of this policy shaped a program of microeconometric evaluations tailored to their particular interests: yielding results from public investments. Achieving this goal required European administrators to organize new interfaces between academic econometrics and civil servants, leading to a partial economization of the notion of ?impact.?
