The world of public policy is becoming increasingly small due to dramatic changes in global communications, political and economic institutional structures, and to nation states themselves. This book evaluates the implications of these changes and challenges for both the study and the practice of policy transfer, and provides a unique understanding of the relationship between systemic globalizing forces and the increasing scope and intensity of policy transfer activity. It provides: an explanation of policy transfer as a process of organizational learning; an insight into how and why such processes are studied by policy scientists; an evaluation of its use by policy practitioners; and the first published collection of policy transfer case studies between developed countries, from developed to developing countries, and from developing countries.

Industry Reviews

'...provides a wide-ranging and sophisticated analysis...It covers not only the key theoretical problematics but also a range of empirically rigorous case studies...And, unusually for this sort of study, it examines the significance of policy transfer for transition and developing countries as well as for developed ones...an indispensable resource for all those interested in the rapidly changing nature of public policy and how it is being transformed in a globalizing world.' Philip G. Cerny, Rutgers University, USA '...the book offers excellent summaries of policy transfer debates, and undoubtedly should be read by anyone wanting a fast introduction to the subject.' Progress in Development Studies
