Why does the “policy causes politics” approach argue that policies increasingly look alike in countries throughout the world?

What will be an ideal response?


Differences across political systems are not as great as differences across policy areas. The technical and political foundations of a policy area may be more similar across countries than are those foundations for disparate policy areas within a single system. As policy ideas spread across national boundaries, the common aspects of policy may become more similar.
