Abstract

Der Verein für Socialpolitik hat auf seiner Jahrestagung im September diesen Jahres Leitlinien zu Standards von Evaluationen wirtschaftspolitischer Maßnahmen verabschiedet. Diese Leitlinien formulieren einen einheitlichen Bewertungsmaßstab für die Güte von Programmevaluationen. Der Beitrag stellt die Grundzüge der neuen Leitlinien des VfS kurz dar und vergleicht sie mit der Maryland Scientific Methods Scale (SMS), einem internationalen Maßstab. Abschließend wird anhand von Beispielen aus anderen Politikfeldern in Deutschland sowie aus dem Ausland dargelegt, dass gute Evaluationen durchaus umsetzbar sind und entscheidend zu einer besseren Politik beitragen können.
