Summary

Nach der states-as-policy-laboratories Metapher fördert Föderalismus politisches Lernen. Doch wie diffundieren Politikinhalte und wie wird politisch relevante Information verbreitet? Indem die Autorin Interdependenzen zwischen Gesundheitspolitikern in der Schweiz analysiert, zeigt sie auf, wie politische Entscheidungsträger in zwischenstaatlichen Netzwerken voneinander lernen.
