An ethnography of the development and travel of the New Zealand
model of neoliberal welfare reform, this study explores the social
life of policy, which is one of process, motion, and change.
Different actors, including not only policy elites but also
providers and recipients, engage with it in light of their own
resources and knowledge. Drawing on two analytic frameworks of the
contemporary anthropology of policy-translation and
assemblage-Kingfisher situates policy as an artifact and architect
of cultural meaning, as well as a site of power struggles. All
points of engagement with policy are approached as sites of policy
production that serve to transform it as well as reproduce it. As
such, A Policy Travelogue provides an antidote to theorizations of
policy as a-cultural, rational, and straightforwardly technical.
