背景资料:关于政策技术建议的学术研究通常侧重于社会和相关政策领域,如卫生、教育和犯罪(奥利弗等人,2014年),以及来自科学学科的学科建议(Jasanoff,1994年; Millstone和货车Zwanenberg,2001年)。小 在社会科学领域,以往的研究或没有探索过在政策领域(如能源政策)中提供工程专业知识,而这些领域的咨询意见至关重要。 认为它是独特的(从“科学建议”),重要的和类似的政策制定-这意味着它可以冲突或补充它。方法:18个定性访谈的目的性样本的官员在英国部委进行了作者(所有,但 其中一人是公务员)。定性数据进行了主题编码,以解决研究aims.Findings:大多数官员自发地确定工程专业知识,既独特又重要,他们的工作。有明显的证据表明 讨论和结论:我们确定了一系列相互作用,这意味着需要考虑管理风格、政策组织内部专家部署以及对政策制定和工程的影响 专业知识,因为实践重叠的方式。如果政府和社会要充分受益于工程咨询,就需要进一步研究工程的本体论和认识论性质,因为它与政策制定有关。
Background: Academic research on technical advice to policy commonly focuses on social and related policy areas such as health, education and crime (Oliver et al. 2014) and disciplinary advice from science disciplines (Jasanoff 1994; Millstone and van Zwanenberg 2001). Little or no prior research in the social sciences have explored engineering expertise in policy domains where such advice is critical (e.g. energy policy).Aims and objectives: We aim to establish ‘engineering advice’ as a new domain of inquiry by showing how civil servants view it as distinctive (from ‘science advice’), important and similar to policy making ‐ implying it can clash or complement it.Methods: 18 qualitative interviews with a purposive sample of officials across a UK ministry were conducted by the authors (all but one of whom were civil servants) in 2012. The qualitative data were thematically coded to address the study aims.Findings: A majority of officials spontaneously identified engineering expertise as both distinctive and important for their work. There was clear evidence that it both complemented and clashed with policymaking.Discussion and conclusions: We identified a range of interactions that imply a need to consider styles of management internal deployment of experts within policy organisations as well as the implications for policy making and engineering expertise given the way practices overlap. Further research on the ontological, epistemological nature of engineering as it relates to policy making is needed if governments and therefore society are to fully benefit from engineering advice.
