Dynamics in the Diffusion and Institutionalization of Site-Based Management Reform in the United States of America

Year 2013, Volume: 14 Issue: 1, 21 - 47, 01.03.2013

Abstract

This study is examined research question: “How does the diffusion of SBM over time and space resemble the broader social dynamics associated with diffusion of educational policy innovations in particular, and other public policy innovations in general?” Data comes from various secondary data sources. Study generates several conclusions. First, institutional theory helps explain the diffusion of SBM. The analysis provides support for institutional theory that pressures to adopt a “fashionable” practice builds gradually over time. It’s also revealed that when isomorphic pressures are absent in a region, diffusion may be explained by nationwide institutional dynamics. Study points to possible learning effects in the regional diffusion process when mimetic pressures are absent. Finally, surprisingly more liberal states can be less likely to move quickly to adopt some policies.

Amerika Birleşik Devletleri’nde Eğitim Sisteminde Yerelleşme Reformunun Yayılım ve Kurumsallaşma Dinamikleri

Year 2013, Volume: 14 Issue: 1, 21 - 47, 01.03.2013

Abstract

Bu araştırma, “eğitim sisteminde yerelleşme reformunun
zaman ve mekan içindeki yayılımı, özelde eğitim politikalarında,
genelde kamu politikalarındaki yenilikler ile ilişkili daha geniş
sosyal dinamiklerle nasıl etkileşmektedir?” sorusuna cevap
aramaktadır. Araştırmanın verileri, çeşitli ikincil kaynaklardan
derlenmiştir. Araştırma, birkaç farklı sonuç üretmiştir. Bunlardan
ilki, kurumsalcı kuramın, eğitimde yerelleşme reformunun
yayılımını açıklamak konusunda geçerli olduğudur. Analiz
sonuçları, “moda” haline gelmiş bir uygulamanın benimsenmesi
konusunda oluşan baskıların zaman içinde, yavaş yavaş inşa
edildiği yönündeki kurumsalcı tezi destekler niteliktedir.
Araştırmanın şaşırtıcı bir sonucu, liberal eyaletlerin bazı politikaları
benimsemek konusunda daha yavaş hareket edebildikleridir.
Özetle bu araştırma, politikaların yayılım sürecini
anlamamız açısından belirgin katkılar sağlamaktadır
