“…In sum, there are numerous arts education policies that have been described by scholars, but not rigorously analyzed. If analysts attend to the “technology” of arts education policy—including concepts I have presented here, like flexibility of implementation, sentimentalized rhetoric, types of diffusion—it will enable more detailed and deeper inquiry, akin to policy work on topics like third-grade reading laws (Cummings et al, 2021) and teacher evaluation (Kim & Youngs, 2022). This type of inquiry is vital going forward to those interested in the relative merit of policy convergence in arts education.…”

Defined as the tendency for structures and groups to “grow more alike, to develop similarities” policy convergence is a recognized factor in policy analysis across fields. In the arts education sphere, this can mean adopting similar curriculum standards, imitating an after-school arts program, or even borrowing a large-scale metropolitan arts education partnership model. I argue that policy diffusion helps to illuminate policy convergence in the arts education milieu. In this policy analysis essay, I first detail the conceptual underpinnings of policy diffusion. Next, I offer specific examples from arts education and attempt to show how they exemplify mechanisms of diffusion. I then argue that there are specific contexts/structures within arts education policymaking that facilitate diffusion, and I conclude with discussion based on the analysis.
