Abstract
En las tres últimas décadas las dos mayores innovaciones en asuntos de gobierno han sido la Nueva Gestión Pública (modo gerencial o postburocrático), y más recientemente, la Gobernanza o Nueva Gobernanza (modo postgubernamental). Asimismo, el auge de la evaluación de las políticas y los programas públicos es en gran medida resultado de las reformas que los gobiernos por convicción o por fuerza han emprendido en los últimos años y que han modificado sus prácticas, su concepto y sus criterios de valoración. Este artículo constata cómo ha ido tomando forma un nuevo proceso de gobernar y administrar, la (nueva) gobernanza, reconociendo su presencia e importancia directiva, pero también la necesidad y conveniencia de evaluar su actividad y resultados, por lo que indaga en las relaciones que podrían establecerse entre la evaluación y la gobernanza y los beneficios que tanto la gobernanza como la evaluación podrían recibir de sus mutuos aportes.
During the last three decades, there have been two major innovations in the field of government affairs, New Public Management (managerial or post-bureaucratic mode), Governance or New Governance (post-governmental mode). Likewise, the new push of program and public policy evaluation, is due in part to reforms that governments have undertaken –by conviction or by force- during these last years, which have modified governmental practices, concepts and assessment criteria. This article discusses how “governance” as a new process of government and administration has taken place, and recognizes its presence and importance as a directive process, and also the need and convenience of evaluating its activities and results. Thus, it investigates on the potential relations between evaluation and governance and the mutual benefits both governance and evaluation might have when their respective contributions are jointly considered.
