Responding to 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 key people in the field, it argues that treating policys movement as an active process of translation, in which policies are interpreted, inflected and re-worked as they change location, is of critical importance for studying policy. The book provides an exciting and accessible analytical and methodological foundation for examining policy in this way and will be a valuable resource for those studying policy processes at both undergraduate and post-graduate levels. Mixing collectively written chapters with individual case studies of policies and practices, the book provides a powerful and productive introduction to rethinking policy studies through translation. It ends with a commitment to the possibilities of thinking and doing policy otherwise.

A marvelous achievement, brilliantly theorizing policy as translation and assemblage in order to make visible the constructions, collaborations, contestations and contradictions that are often elided in mainstream accounts. Catherine Kingfisher, Professor of Anthropology, University of Lethbridge, Canada This remarkable conversation between four policy studies academics shows what happens as policies and practices travel across time and space. Deeply collaborative and intellectually generous, this book exemplifies how we might approach policy otherwise. Wendy Larner, Professor of Geography, University of Bristol Policies clearly travel; and in today's world, such travel crosses borders-not only geographic, but conceptual, linguistic, and cultural-thereby requiring the hard, social and political work of translation, both literally and figuratively. Making Policy Move moves policy analysis forward theoretically and analytically, making it a thought-provoking book for scholars of public policies. Dvora Yanow, Visiting Professor, Faculty of Social Sciences, Wageningen University.
