在这篇文章中，我们阐述了为美国而教(TFA)和联邦特许学校改革之间的关系，以询问个人、组织和私人公司网络是如何影响政策决策的。我们使用政策网络分析来创建TFA在为宪章改革发展和联系人员、政治支持和资金支持方面的关键角色的直观表示。接下来，我们通过放大新奥尔良的一个案例研究来检验这些网络是如何在地方层面展开的。通过勾画出这些联系，我们希望为进一步调查这个网络如何影响政策提供基础。
In this paper we illustrate the relationships between Teach For America (TFA) and federal charter school reform to interrogate how policy decisions are shaped by networks of individuals, organizations, and private corporations. We use policy network analysis to create a visual representation of TFA’s key role in developing and connecting personnel, political support, and financial backing for charter reform. Next we examine how the networks unfold at a local level by zooming in on a case study of New Orleans. By mapping out these connections, we hope to provide a foundation for further investigation of how this network affects policies.
