Supporting transformation in Smart Specialisation Strategies
This article examines how formative evaluation (FE) can enhance the transformative capacity of Smart Specialisation Strategies (S3) by supporting policy processes aligned with transformative innovation policy (TIP). Drawing on a longitudinal, participatory case study of S3 in Catalonia (2020–24), called RIS3CAT, we analyse FE’s influence across the policy cycle: agenda-setting, formulation, legitimation, implementation, monitoring and learning. T…
Disruptive innovations and defence procurement
This paper deals with the study of the challenges that disruptive technologies represent for industrial defence strategies and procurement policies. It focuses on the incorporation of drones into military arsenals and will be based on a study of the Brazilian Navy case. Drones are a disruptive technology both for the defence industrial base and for their implications for military tactics and the organisational structure of the armed forces. The a…
Evaluación formativa y políticas regionales de innovación transformadoras. El caso de la Agenda Compartida del Bages
Este artículo caracteriza la propuesta de evaluación formativa desarrollada en el marco del Consorcio de Políticas de Innovación Transformativa (TIPC) y su aplicación a un caso de política de innovación transformativa denominada Agendas Compartidas (Catalunya). Estas son ejemplos de acción colectiva organizada alrededor de un reto común de carácter social y ambiental. En particular, se aborda el caso de la Agenda Compartida en el sector de a salu…

The future of Evidence & Policy
The future of Evidence & Policy: moving forward from ValenciaIn celebrating the first ten years of Evidence & Policy we wanted to think expansively and creatively about how to move the field forward and identify ways in which Evidence & Policy can contribute to such an advance.To help with this mission, we held a twoday international meeting in Valencia, Spain, in October 2015
Research evaluation and the assessment of public value
Funding organisations are increasingly asking academics to show evidence of the economic and social value generated by their research. These requests have often been associated with the emergence of a so-called ‘new social contract for research’ and are related to the implementation of new research evaluation systems. Although the research evaluation rhetoric is similar across countries and organisations, in practice evaluation can fulfil very di…

Research Governance and the Role of Evaluation
Through a comparative study of the United Kingdom and Spain, this article addresses the effect of different research governance structures on the functioning and uses of research evaluation. It distinguishes three main evaluation uses: distributive, improvement, and controlling. Research evaluation in the United Kingdom plays important distributive and improvement roles while the Spanish evaluation system plays, mainly, a controlling function and…
Stakeholder Mapping as an Assessment Framework for Policy Implementation
In this article we develop a ‘Stakeholder Mapping’ approach to ex-ante policy evaluation. The proposed framework helps to assess policy implementation activities by applying several tests to evaluate the completeness, non-redundancy, proper assignment and internal consistency of a policy design. We illustrate the method by applying it to the analysis of e-commerce policy in Iran. We conclude by assessing the strengths and weaknesses of the approa…
El vínculo entre la innovación militar y civil
El sistema de innovación militar que se configuró durante la Guerra Fría en los países occidentales se está viendo sujeto a un proceso de cambio que va a afectar de forma fundamental la relación con su entorno. El artículo presenta las principales características de este sistema que define como “cerrado”, y analiza las razones, tanto tecnológicas como estratégicas, que impulsan un cambio de modelo. El proceso de transición hacia un sistema más ab…
Toward Theory-Led Evaluation
This article reviews the literature and practice concerned with the evaluation of science, technology, and innovation (STI) policies and theway these relate to theories of the innovation process. Referring to the experience of the European Union (EU), the authors review the attempts to ensure that the STI policy theory is informed by advances in the authors'understanding of the innovation process. They argue, however, that the practice of policy …
