An integrated approach to policy transfer and diffusion - 2002 - p.151-78. - Summer

This article reviews the existing literature on policy transfer and diffusion and offers a more integrated theory for examining the spreading of policy. Typical studies have treated each as separate, yet they are similar in many respects. For example, both involve many of the same agents and processes involved in the spreading of policy. This article integrates the two literatures by developing a theoretical continum upon which varying degrees of policy diffusion occur. - Reproduced.
