Elements in American politics 504 $a Includes bibliographical references. 520 $a In 1969, political scientist Jack Walker published 'The Diffusion of Innovations among the American States' in the American Political Science Review. 'Walker 1969' has since become a cornerstone of political science, packed with ideas, conjectures, and suggestions that spawned multiple lines of research in multiple fields. In good Kuhnian fashion, Walker 1969 is important less for the answers it provides than for the questions it raises, inspiring generations of political scientists to use the political, institutional, and policy differences among the states to understand policymaking better. Walker 1969 is the rock on which the modern subfield of state politics scholarship was built, in addition to inspiring copious research into federalism, comparative politics, and international relations. This Element documents the deep and extensive impact of Walker 1969 on the study of policymaking in the US states. In the process, it organizes and analyzes that literature, demonstrating its progress and promise. 600 10 $a Walker, Jack L. $t Dffusion of innovations among the American states $x Influence. 650 0 $a Policy sciences $z United States $x States. 650 0 $a U.S. states $x Politics and government. 650 0 $a Legislation $z United States $x States. 650 0 $a Diffusion of innovations $z United States. 650 7 $a Diffusion of innovations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00893549 650 7 $a Influence (Literary, artistic, etc.) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00972484 650 7 $a Legislation $x U.S. states. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00995678 650 7 $a U.S. states $x Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01766423 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 830 0 $a Cambridge elements. $p Elements in American politics. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317025026.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A6F54440CF3111EB9A1890BA3BECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
