Abstract

The delegitimization of policy advice has generated a defensive response that combines an assertion of the superior scientific character of expertise with a forthright affirmation of social and political values. This more value-driven discourse of policy expertise is examined with the case study of the Global Solutions Summit/World Policy Forum, launched in 2017 to support the Think20 network of global policy advisors supporting the G20 meetings under the German presidency. The Global Solutions Summit has evolved into a more policy-wonkish version of the World Economic Forum held annually in Davos and now is a switching point of global policy advice for the G7 as well. Through participant observation and an analysis of the proceedings of the annual summits since 2017, the article shows a distinctive configuration of normatively framed policy advice designed to overcome the social and political pathologies that have been the foundation of populist critiques of policy expertise.

对权力说好话:通过规范框架重新定位全球政策建议

政策建议的非合法性产生了一种防御性反应，这种反应将断言专业知识具有优越的科学特性与对社会和政治价值的直率肯定结合在一起。全球解决方案峰会/世界政策论坛于2017年启动，旨在支持Think20全球政策顾问网络，支持德国担任主席国的20国集团会议，通过对全球解决方案峰会/世界政策论坛的案例研究，探讨了这种更具价值导向的政策专业知识话语。全球解决方案峰会已演变为每年在达沃斯举行的世界经济论坛(World Economic Forum)的一个更偏向于政策的版本，现在也是七国集团(G7)提供全球政策建议的一个转折点。通过参与观察和对2017年以来年度峰会会议记录的分析，本文展示了一种独特的规范框架政策建议配置，旨在克服社会和政治病态，这些病态一直是民粹主义对政策专业知识批评的基础。
