RODRIGUEZ, Norman Simón. Current Trends in Public Policy Evaluation. Ens. Econ. [online]. 2018, vol.28, n.53, pp.15-35. ISSN 0121-117X. https://doi.org/10.15446/ede.v28n53.75382.
Policy evaluation is a discipline dedicated to the qualitative and quantitative examination of the decisions made by governments to provide solutions for pressing social issues. Its methods and concepts come from a variety of fields, such as economics, political science, statistics and computer science, among others. This paper provides the historical and methodological background of the current trends in policy evaluation, focusing on formative evaluation and impact evaluation. It also reflects on the potential applications of artificial intelligence and big data in this discipline.
