Full Description
Russell Prince investigates the concept of policy mobility in this concise and accessible book, demonstrating that policy change is not something that happens within a particular jurisdiction, but is a globally interconnected and ongoing process.
Focusing on conceptual foundations, Understanding Policy Mobility offers an extended comparison between policy mobility and policy diffusion and transfer. Chapters investigate the politics and power relations that drive policy change across space, highlighting how policies mutate as they travel. Arguing that policy mobility is a product of the ongoing transformation of policy territories, Prince examines policy as a method for managing and governing place. The book concludes by reflecting on the idea of global policy, and examining why it is important to study policy mobility.
This thought-provoking book is a critical read for human geography and critical policy studies scholars looking for a more in-depth understanding of policy mobility. It is also beneficial to students of urban studies, globalisation studies and the sociology of policy.
