“…On the other hand, qualitative approaches have been discussed for case studies based on the experience of the former Finnish Science and Technology Policy Council (STPC) (Pelkonen, 2006), the Swedish National Innovation Council (NIC) (Edquist, 2018), and partial looks at other councils of Finland and Sweden (Fagerberg, Hutschenreiter, 2020). Further, a case study focusing on a comparison between the councils of Chile and Spain was conducted (Cevallos, Merino-Moreno, 2021).…”

The normative turn that occurred as a result of radical reforms in science, technology, and innovation policies in various countries has sparked a broad discussion around the “directionality-neutrality” dilemma in science, technology, and innovation (STI) development strategies. However, despite a number of recent publications and science and innovation policy programs, the relationship between these two principles, including the practice of their application by government agencies, remains understudied. A representative analysis (using qualitative methods) of the two national STI councils and their role in strategy development, focusing on the process of approach selection and its value orientation, will fill this gap. On the basis of the collected information and scientific literature, the connection with different policy options is identified. It is shown that the role of the councils is determined by their powers and resources and the boundaries of relevant practices and directions for further research are outlined.

PurposeThis article aims to explore, characterize and discuss the notion of the National Policy Councils (NPCs) as public organizations for governance in Chilean public management.Design/methodology/approachA subset of active NPCs of the Chilean public management was identified, characterized and analyzed following previously used schemes.FindingsThe results showcase heterogeneity in the design of NPCs, with differences among several key features. Proposed explanations for this heterogeneity are an evolutionary approach and the fuzziness of the concept. These notions are relevant outcomes for the academic discussion and the practical implementation of NPCs.Originality/valueThe novelty of this research is based on assessing NPCs of different policy domains in an intra-country analysis by comparing their main features and configuration to determine if NPCs could be understood and treated as a unique type of public organization.
