Introducing the special issue on "Researching the geographies of policy mobility," this paper discusses a series of contributions to the methodological challenges posed by the emergence of approaches that draw on notions of policy assemblages, mobility and mutations.While a series of theoretical developments in recent years have challenged orthodox accounts of policy diffusion and transfer, there has thus far been a lack of methodological reflection.It is to attending to this absence that this special issue concerns itself, with each of the four papers blending empirical, methodological and theoretical insights
