“…Within the field of public policy, the policy transfer framework has made considerable progress in analyzing the way that this kind of interest may result in the borrowing of policies (e.g., Marsh, 1996, 2000;Evans and Davies, 1999;, 2004Evans, 2009;Marsh and Sharman, 2009;Benson and Jordan, 2011).
