About an Ongoing Experiment in the Context of Child Protection
The author’s intention is to help clarify these two ideas. Innovation is concerned with
how new ideas come about and spread : beginning with a single actor and an empirical
action, they then enter into a second phase in which they are appropriated by society.
Experimentation consists of testing a new idea by means of a scientific type of
methodology, with a protocol technique of evaluation, verification and validation of
results. Michel Chauvière gives the example of a five-year experiment in the field of
child protection introduced by the law of August 2004 on local responsibilities. He
discusses the difficulties raised by the experiment and concludes that they are linked to
the relative lack of preparation, both in terms of discussion of the underlying political
issues involved, which paradoxically are nothing new, and in terms of the way they are
carried out, which does not sufficiently take into consideration the fact that experimentation itself is a learning process. |
