This study is examined research question: “How does the_x000D_ diffusion of SBM over time and space resemble the broader_x000D_ social dynamics associated with diffusion of educational policy_x000D_ innovations in particular, and other public policy innovations in_x000D_ general?” Data comes from various secondary data sources._x000D_ Study generates several conclusions. First, institutional theory_x000D_ helps explain the diffusion of SBM. The analysis provides_x000D_ support for institutional theory that pressures to adopt a_x000D_ “fashionable” practice builds gradually over time. It’s also_x000D_ revealed that when isomorphic pressures are absent in a region,_x000D_ diffusion may be explained by nationwide institutional dynamics. Study points to possible learning effects in the regional_x000D_ diffusion process when mimetic pressures are absent. Finally,_x000D_ surprisingly more liberal states can be less likely to move quickly_x000D_ to adopt some policies.
