Astrid Wood - How Cities Learn

Chapter 6 considers the multiple temporalities through which circulated policies emerge and remerge before adoption, reasoning that without these multiple attempts, policy adoption is unlikely to occur. The arguments that follow bridge the lacuna between historical and policy mobilities studies, illustrating the gradual, protracted and idiomatic manner through which transnational best practice proceeds, in contrast to the spontaneous and hasty process documented in scholarly literature on policy mobilities. Regardless of the speed through which best practice spreads, policy application remains cumbersome because policy is inherently political, involving people and personalities as well as regulations and restrictions. While it may seem as if circulated policies shorten the gestation time from policy introduction to policy adoption, these repeated attempts ensure that the turnover only appears accelerated.

The remainder of the book considers these issues in further detail.
