Making Policy Move
Making policy move
Responding to the increasing interest in the movement of policies between places, sites and settings, this timely book presents a critical alternative to approaches centred on ideas of policy transfer, dissemination or learning. Written by the key people in the field, it argues that treating policy as an active process of ‘translation’, in which policies are interpreted, inflected and re-worked as they change location, is of critical importance f…
E uropeanization, Welfare and Variegated Austerity Capitalisms – H ungary and C roatia
This article focuses on the implications of understanding ‘ E uropeanization’ as a complex, dynamic and troubled translation process. It discusses post‐communist welfare in the context of variegated forms of austerity capitalism in the EU . In particular, the complex relationships between modalities of welfare, the uneven development of neo‐liberalisms and the multi‐scalar restructuring of welfare assemblages, are discussed in the context of the …
Policy paradigms, gender equality and translation
The growing influence of transnational process, institutions and policy communities has contributed to the emergence of a global public policy that is distinct (although not separate) from the national process of policy-making. In this context gender equality and gender mainstreaming have become dominant policy and political narratives for addressing gender injustice. The focus of this paper is on developing the conceptual and theoretical links b…
Políticas como tradução
This article explores some of the implications of the development of an anthropology or ethnography of the transnational dimensions of policies.The fi rst part explains the basic conceptual apparatus, in terms of policies as a generator of meanings.The second part examines policies as translation and explores its implications in terms of the transnationalization of the policies and, in particular, it seeks to contrast the translation of policies …
Assemblages, Translation, and Intermediaries in South East Europe
International and transnational processes pose distinctive challenges to the traditional boundaries and conceptual frameworks of the discipline of social policy. International actors can no longer simply be ‘added on’ to traditional national studies. Rather, a new vocabulary and epistemology is needed to capture the complexity and liminality of the encounters between actors, sites, discourses, scales and contexts. In this text, based on empirical…
EU Integration and the Transformation of Post‐communist Welfare
While many academic accounts treat post‐communist Europe as just another site of Europeanization with an emphasis on ‘adaptation’ and ‘learning’, this article argues that EU integration and the transformation of post‐communist Europe is a much more complex, volatile and uncertain process; not so much one of adaptation but more a ‘quantum leap’, apparently bypassing the stage of a Keynesian regime. Post‐communist Europe is asked to join an EU agen…
Policies as translation
Introduction A constructivist ‘anthropology of policy’ ‘treats the models and language of decision-makers as ethnographic data to be analysed’ (Shore and Wright, 1997, p 13) so that policy is viewed as a process rather than a fact. This approach is more concerned with how policy means rather than with what policy means. It reverses a traditional anthropology of ‘making the strange familiar’ with a commitment to ‘making the familiar strange’ (MacC…
Europeanization of Social Policy? Prospects and Challenges for South East Europe
This comprehensive and engaging volume investigates the role of international actors in the making of social policy in South East Europe. Introductory chapters on transnationalism and Europeanisation are followed by a series of nine linked case studies depicting research undertaken within the region. The book charts the variable influence that international actors such as formal organisations, non-governmental organisations, consulting companies …
Policies as translation
This chapter investigates some of the implications of developing an anthropology or ethnography of the transnational dimensions of policy (dimensions of policy which comprises levels beyond the individual nation state). It adheres to ethnographic accounts of policy change processes which highlight policy mediation, dialogue, translation, compromise, and resistance. It focuses on social policy in terms of its ‘displacements’ or ‘deep uncertainties…
