Trygve Ugland is a professor in the Department of Politics and International Studies at Bishop's University.
"""In an increasingly interdependent and dynamic world, flourishing, and even survival, depend on the ability to learn from experience, one's own and others. This well-designed study of policy transfer from Canada to the Scandinavian countries offers several new insights into the basic processes that promote or hinder learning and diffusion across state borders. A valuable addition to the international literature."" --Johan P. Olsen, Professor Emeritus, University of Oslo ""Addressing the increasingly important aspect of public policy formation, Ugland's study of how the Canadian model has shaped debates and the development of immigration and integration policies in Scandinavian countries makes a substantial contribution to an emerging scholarly debate on the role of the international setting for policy formation. Policy Learning from Canada is refreshingly accessible for a broad audience."" --Oliver Schmidtke, Department of Political Science, University of Victoria"
