Overcoming the failure of ‘silicon somewheres’: learning in policy transfer processes
研究了亚洲、欧洲和美国的‘硅谷某地’案例，发现政策转移的成功或失败取决于不同的学习类型，包括模仿、试错和适应性学习。
Increased pressure to use policy transfer as a tool has led policy-makers to seek it as a solution for innovation efforts. A prominent example is Silicon Valley, whose replication attempts have been widely criticised. Based on ‘Silicon Somewhere’ cases in Asia, Europe and the US, the research suggests that there are different types of learning contributing to the success or failure of policy transfer. These variations in the learning processes underlying the transfer include imitation, trialand- error and adaptive learning.
