本文汇集了不同的理论观点,提出了一个政策评估框架,这些政策的明确目标是在可持续农村发展的背景下促进社区参与其自然环境的管理,如欧盟领导人方案、澳大利亚关爱我们的国家和联合国教科文组织生物圈保护区。以前的政策评估过度简化了这些政策所针对的复杂的社会生态系统,缺乏对它们所针对的政策级别的详细说明,并且假设政策可以设计成产生可预测的结果。这一综合框架提供了概念和理论背景,可将政策审查和未来方案设计的个别评价工作纳入其中。它超越了现有框架,允许确定解释政策工具如何有效以及为什么有效的因素。它提供了一个结构,在这个结构中,可以在多层次和多尺度的背景下确定和分析来自不同来源、相关利益攸关方和关系的数据集。然而,我们强调,政策制定者和评估者的心态必须改变,以接受各种利益相关者的看法和评估的不确定性和有效性。
This paper brings together different theoretical perspectives to propose an evaluation framework for policies which have the explicit aim to foster communities' involvement in the management of their natural environment in the context of sustainable rural development, such as the EU LEADER programme, Australia's Caring for Our Country, and UNESCO Biosphere Reserves. Previous policy evaluations have over-simplified the complex social-ecological systems on which these policies are intended to act, have lacked specification of the policy level they address and were predicated on the assumption that policies can be designed to produce predictable outcomes.Based on a concept of ‘complex realities’ we developed a framework to guide the evaluation of policy effectiveness in social-ecological systems. This comprehensive framework provides the conceptual and theoretical context in which individual evaluation exercises for policy review and future programme design can be embedded. It goes beyond existing frameworks by allowing the identification of factors that explain how and why a policy tool was effective. It provides a structure within which datasets from different sources, relevant stakeholders and relationships can be identified and analysed in a multi-level and multi-scale context. However, we emphasise that policy makers and evaluators' mindsets would have to change to accept uncertainty and the validity of various stakeholders' perceptions and evaluations.
