The purpose of this study is to explain the policy innovation-diffusion factors and their strength and make contribution to the study of local government's policy diffusion through understanding the policy innovation-diffusion-factors and their strength.
In this study, the regional festival cases were selected for explaining local governments' policy innovations and diffusion. The unit of analysis is local governments in kyunggi province, and the observation time period is from 1995 in which local governments have been organized by popular election vote to 2008. The analysis method is discrete time event history analysis with discrete time logistic model. In Conclusion, the number of nearby local governments that have adopted regional festivals, Self-Reliance Ratio of Local Finance and the number of cultural facilities to residents have positive influence on the regional festival diffusion. To the contrary, the size of local governments such as the number of residents, per public servants, total budget and expenditure are found to have no significant effect on regional festival diffusion.
