转型发展和中国地方政府绩效评价:问题、原因和变革选择

Restructuring and Performance Evaluation of Local Government:Problem,Reason,and Options of Change

在转型发展进程中,地方政府绩效评价历经"从无到有"、"从形式到实质"、"从产出-过程-效果"、"从干部考核-党风考评-机关建设-政府绩效评价"发展过程。本文认为,在建设服务型政府的目标下,地方政府绩效评价体系应包括人(官员)、财(预算资金)、事(公共服务)三要素,通过建立地方政府综合绩效评价这样一种制度安排实现对官员行为、预算资金和公共事务的整合,即实现对官员激励、绩效预算与民生发展理念的整合,倡导地方政府间、政府与部门间、部门与官员间的管理灵活性和分权、实施结果承诺和结果导向的管理制度,对公共产出实施结果与总量控制。
