¿Por qué los contratistas muestran interés por desarrollar, implementar, y analizar evaluaciones internacionales a gran escala cuando éstas no parecen generar beneficios financieros? ¿Qué hace a los contratos de ILSA (ILSA, por sus siglas en inglés) tan atractivos? Aplicando la teoría del préstamo de políticas a actores no-estatales, y analizando 35 entrevistas con personal de la OCDE, IEA y contratistas de ILSA, el artículo discute por qué los contratistas llevan a cabo contratos o donan a ILSA. Mayoritariamente, los contratistas de ILSA entrevistados manifestaron que su trabajo en ILSA es una inversión, un contrato en el punto de equilibrio o con pérdidas. Las lógicas se relacionan con intereses en desarrollos metodológicos e innovación; investigación; responsabilidad social; aprendizaje; visibilidad; prestigio; credibilidad; redes; oportunidades de negocio; y lógicas individuales. El artículo concluye que los contratistas de ILSA están usando las ILSA para avanzar sus intenciones políticas, de mercado de evaluación del aprendizaje.
