Abstract

Raines P. (2006) The 'Trojan Horse' effect and the evaluation of Structural Funds, Regional Studies 40, 285-288. The paper considers the extent to which Structural Funds evaluation has features that differ from domestic policy evaluation and whether they could contribute to the continuing development of the evaluation of national policies. Based on the experience of Structural Funds evaluation in Scotland in the 2007-13 period, the paper discusses the so-called 'Trojan Horse' effect and identifies four distinctive elements in Structural Funds evaluation: the importance of evaluation in policy development; its programmatic nature; the role of policy learning; and the approach to assessing macro-economic effects from diverse microeconomic interventions. Structural Funds Evaluation approach National policies Scotland Raines P. (2006) L'evaluation des Fonds structurels en Ecosse: l'effet cheval de Troie, Regional Studies 40, 285-288. Cet article cherche a examiner dans quelle mesure l'evaluation des Fonds structurels a des traits qui se distinguent de ceux relatifs a l'evaluation de la politique interieure, et si, oui ou non, ils pourraient contribuer au developpement permanent de l'evaluation des politiques nationales. A partir de l'experience de l'evaluation des Fonds structurels en Ecosse pour la periode 2007-13, cet article cherche a discuter du soi-disant effet cheval de Troie et identifie quatre elements caracteristiques de l'evaluation des Fonds structurels: a savoir, l'importance de l'evaluation dans le developpement des politiques; sa programmation; le role de l'apprentissage de politique; et la facon d'evaluer les effets macroeconomiques a partir de diverses interventions microeconomiques.

Dieser Aufsatz berucksichtigt inwieweit die Evaluierung der Strukturfonds Zuge aufweist, die sie von der Evaluierung nationaler Policies unterscheident, und uberlegt, ob sie zu fortlaufender Entwicklung der Evaluierung nationaler Policies beitragen konnte. Auf der Grundlage der Erfahrung der Strukturfondsevaluierung in Schottland im Zeitraum 2007-2013 bespricht dieser Aufsatz den sogenannten 'Trojanischen Pferdeeffekt', und stellt vier unverkennbare Elemente der Strukturfonds-Evaluierung heraus: die Bedeutung der Evaluierung fur Policy-Entwiclelung; seinen programmatischen Charakter; die Rolle von Policy-Lernen; und den Ansatz zur Beurteilung makrookonomischer Effekte verschiedener mikrookonomischer Interventionen.
