Policy transfer : consultants and the geographies of governance
Decision making process ; Diffusion ; Expertise ; Governance ; Network ; Policy ; Political geography ; Transnationalism
The emergence of transnational geographies of governance presents a challenge to geographers. Geographical work on policy transfer has much to offer conceptions of emerging geographies of governance, when linked to the production of governance
structures, such as global policy networks. The paper argues that increased use of ethnographic methods in policy transfer studies enables a focus on how global policy networks are produced through the actors driving the transfers. This is illustrated through

The article aims to analyze the evolution and purpose of European cohesion policy. The goal is to underline the multiplicity of scales involved in European territorial policies (regional, national, continental) and their relevance in the analysis

The A. examines here the use of narratives about these causal relationships and explore why narratives with little basis in observation can persist in guiding policy. He examines 3 case studies, one concerning a narrative of climate impacts
(catastrophic flooding in Mozambique, in 2000), a second concerning the relationship between household wealth and vulnerability, and the third concerning the procedures and needs of policy-makers themselves. In each case, the A. finds that the narrative
that was needed to legitimize and continue the resource flow within an existing policy process continued, despite growing empirical and model-driven evidence to suggest that the narrative may not be correct. He compares these stories with theories from
sociological and evolutionary theory and suggests the importance of correcting or improving policy processes to avoid this pathology.

, and the municipalities play an important role in this development. As a result, there are expectations of policies for participation that direct the concerns of citizens with respect to public policies at a local level. Similar to other states in Latin America, Chile
enjoys policies that could be perfected in an effort to achieve better integration and synergy among them, especially in the municipalities. This article presents arguments and evidence in the case of Chile in respect of mechanisms of participation
, associative life and confidence in the municipalities, as well as proposing ways to perfect public policies for local participation.

Across the world, governments, NGOs, scientists, policy-makers, and resource managers are learning to speak in the language of ecosystem services. It is a concept that seems to belong to what many geographers call neoliberal-style environmental
policies. However, the policies and practices around the ecosystem service concept deviate considerably from neoliberal doctrine. Heterogeneity and tensions within the world of ecosystem service policies are explored.
