Abstract: This thesis presents three ex-post evaluations of public policies in France in the education field. Each section aims to contribute to the interdisciplinary analytical framework of evaluation, by using the tools of econometric modelization. The first chapter focus on the effects on secondary teachers, of the 2003 reform of the public retirement system (modification of financial incentives). Stock and Wise model is structurally estimated. The second chapter measures the impact of a feature of the 2010 reform (following-up of the 2003 reform), namely the increase in the minimum legal age of retirement, on sick leaves of secondary teachers. A theoretical optimization model is built in order to develop hypothesis, that are then tested in dynamic non-linear panel data regressions. The last chapter evaluates the impact at the high-school level of a French program of affirmative action. A classic differences-in-differences methodology measures how the program affects the access rate to higher education.
