Policy Diffusion Dynamics in America integrates research from agenda setting and epidemiology to model factors that shape the speed and scope of public policy diffusion. Drawing on a data set of more than 130 policy innovations, the research demonstrates that the "laboratories of democracy" metaphor for incremental policy evaluation and emulation is insufficient to capture the dynamic process of policy diffusion in America. A significant subset of innovations trigger outbreaks - the extremely rapid adoption of innovation across states. The book demonstrates how variation in the characteristics of policies, the political and institutional traits of states, and differences among interest group carriers interact to produce distinct patterns of policy diffusion.

Policy Diffusion Dynamics in America explores why some policies spread more rapidly across states than others. It demonstrates how variation in the characteristics of policies, the political and institutional traits of states, and differences among interest group carriers interact to produce different patterns of policy diffusion. This work, based on study of the diffusion of more than 130 policy innovations, addresses a range of topics of interest to students of public policy and federalism.
Graeme Boushey is Assistant Professor of Political Science at San Francisco State University. His teaching and research are organized around practical and theoretical questions of state and federal policy-making. He recently co-authored a review of individual and organizational decision-making for the Handbook of Public Policy, and he has also co-authored an article in the Journal of Comparative Public Policy on immigration policy in federations.

Hardcover. Condition: Fair. No Jacket. Navy blue boards with silver gilt lettering on front and along spine. The main condition issue with this book is the blemish on the lower board (top left-hand corner) - see photo. While there is no indication elsewhere that this is ex-library, there is a very faint red stamp on the copyright page which probably reads 'damaged' and presumably refers to the mark on the back of the book. Internally the book is sound, with tight binding, and a series of b/w maps, tables and diagrams - see photo examples. pp. xvi, 221.8vo.
