Reviews

'Stella Ladi has taken on a daunting set of challenges: a comparative study of policy transfer; a study of the role of think tanks in the transfer process; and the relevance of Europeanisation to shaping the transfer process. As such, this is an innovative book tackling increasingly important issues that cut across the fields of public policy and international relations. It deserves to be widely read as the first systematic study of its kind - and others will surely follow.' - Kevin Featherstone, European Institute, London School of Economics and Political Science, UK 'Policy transfer is on the increase, fuelled by the dual processes of globalisation and Europeanisation. Stella Ladi provides an incisive and detailed account of how policy transfer is shaping policy developments in Europe within a rich theoretical context.' - Diane Stone, Central European University, Hungary
