Abstract

Der Beitrag möchte ein besseres Verständnis der inter- und transnationalen Verbreitung von Nudging als einem Subtypus von Verhaltenspolitik schaffen. Auf der Grundlage einer Dokumentenauswertung und von Interviews diskutieren wir in zwei Schritten, wie die Entstehungs- und Erfolgsbedingungen für den weltweiten Aufstieg von Verhaltenspolitiken sein könnten. Erstens wird aufgezeigt, dass die Transnationalisierung der Verhaltenspolitik keineswegs einem einheitlichen Modell folgt. Im Ländervergleich finden wir vielmehr eine begrenzte Vielfalt der „varieties of behavioural public policy“, die sich mit Blick auf die Richtung und Tiefe von Institutionalisierungsprozessen sowie hinsichtlich der Politikfeldorientierung unterscheiden. Wir unterscheiden zwischen vier „Welten der Verhaltenspolitik“, einer angelsächsischen, skandinavischen, kontinentaleuropäischen und einer lateinamerikanischen Ländergruppe. Die Verbreitung von Verhaltenspolitik und ihre häufigste, mindestens aber prominenteste Ausprägung – das Nudging – vollzieht sich im Zusammenspiel nationaler und transnationaler Netzwerke zwischen wissenschaftlichen, politischen und administrativen Akteuren. In einem zweiten Schritt werden die dieser grenzüberschreitenden Vernetzungsdynamik zugrundeliegenden Mechanismen genauer beleuchtet. Abschließend schlagen wir zur Vertiefung der im Beitrag skizzierten Thesen drei weiterführende Forschungslinien vor.
