19、種監(jiān)控，在每種情況下，實(shí)踐都不可能與理論完全一致。</p><p>　　就單個(gè)規(guī)劃而言，復(fù)審過程即使有也都隨意性大，不那么正規(guī)化。規(guī)劃機(jī)構(gòu)的復(fù)審和修正工作也不正規(guī)，而是按照政治上的優(yōu)先考慮來進(jìn)行，或?qū)鹊美婕瘓F(tuán)（包括其他政府機(jī)構(gòu)）的大聲抱怨作出反應(yīng)。后一種情況往往代表規(guī)劃活動(dòng)的結(jié)局，其優(yōu)點(diǎn)為：可以接君早先在規(guī)劃準(zhǔn)備金段避而不談而在政治上有正義的問題。多數(shù)規(guī)劃組織都沒有財(cái)力和時(shí)間，也不愿意對規(guī)劃績效進(jìn)行系統(tǒng)的、連

20、續(xù)的評估。不論是處于有意還是疏忽，總之，規(guī)劃活動(dòng)成了典型的“雜亂無章”的增量過程。有第三方做成的評估，通常包含對政策的有效性作專業(yè)分析，有時(shí)范圍更加廣泛、更加仔細(xì)周到、更加公正。遺憾的是，地方規(guī)劃很少能得到詳細(xì)的、獨(dú)立的評估。即使在對規(guī)劃政策進(jìn)行相當(dāng)嚴(yán)格的分析的地方，正如摩爾和羅德1977年對英國區(qū)域規(guī)劃政策的評估中，整成難以界定，相互矛盾，有不斷地變化翻新，加之經(jīng)濟(jì)體制的開放性，程問題的指標(biāo)，冒昧的假設(shè)，以及令人懷疑的統(tǒng)計(jì)方法，所有這

21、一切加在一起使得評估結(jié)果難以令人信服。</p><p>　　由此可見，規(guī)劃績效評估并非易事。首先，弄清評估項(xiàng)目就不容易。政策、策略及某些具體的規(guī)劃發(fā)放或隱蔽或間接，或特別，各不相同，還存在無效政策的難題。而且，當(dāng)某些特定的目標(biāo)成為數(shù)家機(jī)構(gòu)爭相采納的測評方法的對象時(shí)，要把相關(guān)的一套政策與特定問題區(qū)分開來也不容易。正因?yàn)槿绱?，即使在一個(gè)具體的規(guī)劃文件中，同一個(gè)目的也可能涉及幾個(gè)政策。其次，必要的資料也難以得到，最好的

22、時(shí)候也可能用不能令人滿意的代用指標(biāo)。最后，因果關(guān)系的衡量還會(huì)在開放的復(fù)雜的社會(huì)中造成無法克服的困難，在各種政策相互強(qiáng)化或相互對立的地方，或在反應(yīng)明顯滯后的地方，情況尤其如此。</p><p>　　規(guī)劃體系或規(guī)劃本身的績效監(jiān)控視乎引起了更多的注意。商業(yè)部門、社團(tuán)組織、政府部門、官僚部門，以及學(xué)術(shù)界都不厭其煩地對規(guī)劃的準(zhǔn)備過程及決策程序提出批評，并熱衷于提出改進(jìn)意見。政府通常采用謹(jǐn)慎使用的系統(tǒng)評估方法，強(qiáng)調(diào)收集有關(guān)資

23、料，比如審批規(guī)劃申請所需的時(shí)間等，其目的是改進(jìn)現(xiàn)有規(guī)劃體制，偶爾也有更激進(jìn)的大修大補(bǔ)。</p><p>　　在更深層次上，許多勤于認(rèn)真思考的人懷疑規(guī)劃體系是否能達(dá)到其特定目標(biāo)——雖然這并沒有妨礙規(guī)劃人員奮力工作，而是因?yàn)槌鞘姓弑緛砭吞珡?fù)雜，很難獲得成功。分析家們很快找到了資本注意國家妨礙規(guī)劃成功的原因。這方面的文獻(xiàn)大多使用了所謂的批評的東西來幫助改進(jìn)自由民主混合經(jīng)濟(jì)體制中的規(guī)劃體系。大衛(wèi)·哈維認(rèn)為“規(guī)
