摘　　要：作为加强政府外部问责的一种重要方式,政府绩效外部评估自2000年以来在中国发展迅猛,但至今很少有人对此进行研究。为了填补这个研究空缺,本文梳理了中国政府绩效外部评估的发展历程,并对其代表性项目的绩效进行了评价。研究发现,尽管中国政府绩效外部评估的总体质量令人满意,但仍然存在一些问题。政府绩效外部评估需要进一步提升其独立性、效度和信度,同时需要将原始数据向社会公众发布,以利于重复和验证。这些方面的改善,可以进一步提升政府绩效外部评估的质量、信度和功能性。虽然政府绩效外部评估是强化政府外部问责的有力工具,在当前中国也是十分必要且发展迅猛的,但要建立有效的政府绩效管理系统,在加强科层控制和内部问责的同时推进外部民主问责,还需要系统性的政治和行政改革方能实现。Since 2000 s, as an important venue to enhance external government accountability, external government performance evaluation(EGPE) activities have been burgeoning in China. However, few studies have been conducted on the important phenomenon. To bridge the gap, in this article we examine the emergence and development of EGPE in China and evaluate its performance. We found that although the quality of EGPEs is generally satisfactory, EGPEs in China have some serious problems.We argue that EGPE in China needs to further improve its independence, validity and reliability. By releasing its raw data to the public for verification and duplication, EGPE will further improve its quality, credibility and functionality. Although EGPE in China as a tool to promote external government accountability is necessary and promising in the current context, effective performance management system that does not only serve hierarchical control and internal accountability but also external and democratic accountability requires systematic political and administrative reforms.
