“政策咨询系统”的概念是由Halligan在1995年提出的,作为一种描述和分析政府在决策过程中使用的政策咨询的多种来源的方法。这一概念已证明是有用的,并影响了对不同咨询场所政策工作性质以及这些系统如何运作和随时间变化的思考。本文阐述了现有的政策咨询系统模型的基础上Halligan的原始思想的主题,强调的重要性的位置或接近权威的决策者作为一个关键方面的咨询系统的影响。它评估了咨询系统如何改变的双重影响的结果,增加使用外部顾问和其他来源的咨询“外部化”和增加使用党派政治咨询政府内部本身的“政治化”。有人认为,这两种动力模糊了内部和外部咨询来源的内容之间以及政策制定的技术和政治层面之间传统上的明显区别,最终影响到咨询系统的影响力所在。(C)2013年政策和社会协会(APSS)。爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
The concept of "policy advisory systems" was introduced by Halligan in 1995 as a way to characterize and analyze the multiple sources of policy advice utilized by governments in policy-making processes. The concept has proved useful and has influenced thinking about both the nature of policy work in different advisory venues, as well as how these systems work and change over time. This article sets out existing models of policy advisory systems based on Halligan's original thinking on the subject which emphasize the significance of location or proximity to authoritative decision-makers as a key facet of advisory system influence. It assesses how advisory systems have changed as a result of the dual effects of the increased use of external consultants and others sources of advice 'externalization' and the increased use of partisan-political advice inside government itself 'politicization'. It is argued that these twin dynamics have blurred traditionally sharp distinctions between both the content of inside and outside sources of advice and between the technical and political dimensions of policy formulation, ultimately affecting where influence in advisory systems lies.
