Making Policy Move: Towards a Politics of Translation and Assemblage

Autor John Clarke, Dave Bainton, Noémi Lendvai, Paul Stubbs
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 apr 2015
Responding to the increasing interest in the movement of policies between places, sites, and settings, this timely book presents an alternative to critical approaches that center on ideas of policy transfer, dissemination, or learning. With profound implications for policy studies, contributors instead treat policy’s movement as an active process of translation, in which policies are interpreted, inflected, and reworked as they change location. Mixing collectively written chapters with individual case studies of policies and practices, this book provides an exciting, accessible, and novel analytical and methodological foundation for rethinking policy studies through translation.

Recenzii

“A marvelous achievement, brilliantly theorizing policy as translation and assemblage in order to make visible the constructions, collaborations, contestations, and contradictions that are often elided in mainstream accounts.”

“This remarkable conversation between four policy studies academics shows what happens as policies and practices travel across time and space. Deeply collaborative and intellectually generous, this book exemplifies how we might approach policy otherwise.”

“Policies clearly travel; and in today’s world, such travel crosses borders—not only geographic, but conceptual, linguistic, and cultural—thereby requiring the hard, social and political work of translation, both literally and figuratively. Making Policy Move moves policy analysis forward theoretically and analytically, making it a thought-provoking book for scholars of public policies.”
