Publisher Description:
Responding to increasing interest in the movement of policies between places, sites and settings, this timely book, written by key people in the field, argues that treating policy's movement as an active process of 'translation', in which policies are interpreted, inflected and re-worked as they change location, is of critical importance for studying policy.
