Abstract
The effectiveness of scientific advisory committees depends on three factors: their ability to achieve a consensus about the conflicting cognitive claims; their ability to formulate the results such that they are compatible with the expectations and structural requirements of the relevant political body; and whether their decisions have a good chance of legitimising political decisions in society. The currently dominant model of neo-corporatist scientific political counselling in Germany and many other European countries, either in theory or in practice, does not provide a suitable consultation under the conditions of value pluralism, ambivalence and uncertainty. The shortcomings of inadequate effectiveness and practicability of scientific political counselling can at least partly be overcome only when scientific counselling in politics is seen as a constituent element of a comprehensive discursive approach.
