Focusing on the diffusion of policy ideas, the book examines enterprise zones, initially proposed by the Reagan administration to revitalize inner cities. It analyzes their adoption in Virginia, Indiana, Michigan, New York, and Massachusetts over twelve years, highlighting how both liberal and conservative factions embraced this concept. The author investigates the information networks and decision-making processes involved, questioning whether the spread of enterprise zones was a result of opportunism or informed deliberation.
