Empirical Modeling of Policy Diffusion in Federal States: The Dyadic Approach (2008, methodology): “In addition, a growing literature has examined how policies diffuse internationally in a wide range of domains, including economic policies (Elkins, Guzman, and Simmons 2006; Simmons and Elkins 2004; Meseguer 2006a; Meseguer 2004; Swank 2006), regulatory policies (Jordana and Levi-Faur 2005; Levi-Fa”
Credibility, Complexity and Uncertainty: Explaining the Institutional Independence of 29 EU Agencies (2010, background): “…regulation, the credible commitment problem is supposed to loom particularly large, since a lack of credible commitments on behalf of the legislators is likely to provide a negative signal to potential investors and thus has negative consequences for attracting investment (Gilardi 2005b: 143).”
Knowledge Production and Contradictory Functions in African Higher Education (2015, background): “Baltimore: The Johns Hopkins University Press Bloom D, Canning D & Chan K (2006) Higher Education and Economic Development in Africa.

A Formal Model of Learning and Policy Diffusion (2008, background): “This framework implies that policy makers in both the decision- and game-theoretic models will balance ideologically proximity against effectiveness.”
Organizations, Regulation, and Economic Behavior: Regulatory Dynamics and Forms from the Nineteenth to Twenty-First Century (2008, background): “Nearly every Western European nation created regulatory authorities for electricity, telecoms, finance, and competition policy; at least half did so for food and pharmaceuticals (Gilardi 2005).”
Measuring the formal independence of regulatory agencies (2012, background): “These organizations have spread quickly (Gilardi 2005b; Jordana et al. 2009), their independence justified as a solution to politicians’ time-inconsistent preferences (Kydland and Prescott 1977); a way of introducing technocratic Pareto-improving regulation (Majone 1994), or as a way of…”
Learning From Others (2009, background): “…downsizing (Lee and Strang 2006), tax policy (Swank 2006), pension reform (Brooks 2005; Brooks 2007), independent regulatory agencies (Jordana and Levi-Faur 2005; Gilardi 2005), central banks (Polillo and Guillén 2005), and bilateral investment treaties (Elkins, Guzman, and Simmons 2006).”
Introduction: Cross-national policy convergence: concepts, approaches and explanatory factors (2005, background): “patterns over time (Elkins and Simmons 2005; Jordana and Levi-Faur 2005; Levi-Faur 2005; Gilardi 2005).”
Policy Learning, Policy Diffusion, and the Making of a New Order (2005, background): “Overall, given that the rise of the regulatory state does match the trend we associate with a process of diffusion (Levi-Faur 2005; Gilardi 2005 [this volume])—the so called S-shaped curve—and given that learning from others is a mechanism of diffusion, it does make sense to entertain the…”
De facto independence after delegation: A fuzzy‐set analysis (2007, background): “Email: Martino.Maggetti@unil.ch Accepted for publication 24 August 2007. ª 2007 The Author Journal compilation ª 2007 Blackwell Publishing Asia Pty Ltd literature, the shift in power to these bodies is quantitatively impressive and qualitatively relevant (Gilardi 2005).”
Causes and conditions of cross-national policy convergence (2005, background): “Similar responses to parallel problem pressure are not the same as policy transfer or diffusion, since under this mechanism actors do not behave in response to each other’s actions (Gilardi 2005).”
The international sources of policy convergence: explaining the spread of environmental policy innovations (2005, background): “…diffusion as a well-specified set of mechanisms of policy change than from equating it with an all-encompassing notion of spread (see, for example, Busch et al. 2005; Elkins and Simmons 2005; Lazer 2005; Levi-Faur 2005; Meseguer and Gilardi 2005; Tews 2005; Jörgens 2004; Simmons and Elkins 2004).”
