許多學者認為政策移植是一種新穎的政策制定模式，並針對政策移植的概念或方法提出討論；惟以往政策移植研究的概念分歧與理論建構並不完整，對移植政策的成敗或效果較少討論，欠缺公允的標準評估移植政策的成效。本文從厚實政策移植理論的角度，提出結合政策過程與知識應用的雙元演化觀點，主要有四項主張：第一，從理論建構觀點，政策移植不僅涉及政策制定，也涉及其他的政策過程；第二，政策移植的核心是資訊與知識的轉換與應用，是一連串的學習歷程；第三，政策移植涉及知識應用過程與政策過程，稱為政策移植之雙元演化過程；及第四，從實證觀點，本文提出移植政策之評估指標系統，並利用修正德菲法專家問卷方法協助建立評估面相與指標。這套指標系統應建立在知識應用的基礎，且涵蓋政策過程的不同多階段，包括資料蒐集、政策制定、執行與評估，藉以更完整、全面地評估移植政策的活動與成效。

Many studies recognize policy transfer as a new form of policyformulation, and propose a variety of concepts and methods to discuss the idea.However, the existing studies have shortcomings such as diverse concepts,incomplete theory-building, less discussion with the effectiveness of policytransfer, and lack fair indicators for judging the effectiveness of policy transfer.This study proposes the idea of the evolutionary process of integrating policyprocess and knowledge to thick the theories of policy transfer. This study hasthree arguments as follows. First, from the prospective of theory building, notonly does policy transfer involve policy formulation, but also include the otherphases of policy process. Second, the core of policy transfer is the transfer andutilization of policy information and knowledge; policy transfer is a seriesprocess of learning. Third, policy transfer involves both knowledge utilizationprocess and policy process, this study names this as the dual evolutionaryprocess of policy transfer. Fourth, this study also proposes the evaluationindicators for transfer policies with different aspects with modified Delphitechnique. These indicators should be based on the basis of knowledge andinclude different phases of policy process to evaluate the activities andeffectiveness of policy transfer, more completely.
