MORELES VAZQUEZ, Jaime. El uso o influencia de la investigación en la política: el caso de la evaluación de la educación superior en México. RMIE [online]. 2010, vol.15, n.46, pp.685-712. ISSN 1405-6666.

Within the tradition of studies on the use or influence of research, this paper presents work on the relation between research and policy, based on the evaluation of higher education. The results show that educational research in Mexico has influenced the political agenda, by including arguments and reorienting debate, and even by modifying initiatives and programs; contributing factors have been the type of research, as well as the assumption or expansion of academic roles into circles of political decision-making. The report also identifies traits of interaction between researchers and government employees, while contributing to the comprehension of the use of research by weighing some of the involved elements.

Palabras llave : research; public policies; decision-making; higher education; Mexico.
