The title of the seminar will be ‘Learning by Example: Imitation and Innovation at a Global Bank’, which is also the title of his upcoming book.

David Strang’s work examines processes of institutional change and diffusion in the organizational and political worlds, and his recent projects include qualitative and quantitative analysis of imitation and innovation via a case study of a global bank and its benchmarking programme, research on public sector downsizing, and analysis of the post 9/11 spread of civil liberties resolutions across American cities.
