Abstract

In this study, the diffusion process of the innovative policy of urban regeneration was examined from the perspective of tourism, and the analysis was conducted on the premise that spatial interaction between local governments can occur based on policy diffusion theory. As a result of the exploratory analysis, it was confirmed that spatial autocorrelation occurs between neighboring local governments, while spatial heterogeneity exists between local governments with different geographical locations. According to the results of spatial regression analysis, competition, learning, and forcing mechanisms appeared significantly in the ordinance adoption process in the early stage of policy introduction, and only competition and learning mechanisms showed significant influence in the later ordinance revision process. In other words, the more actively local governments within the same metropolitan government adopt or revise ordinances, and the more successful the adoption and revision of ordinances by neighboring local governments is, the more active the local governments are in introducing and revising ordinances. It can be interpreted. In addition, it can be understood that local governments that have difficulty receiving financial support from higher-level governments are more active in initially adopting ordinances and less so in the process of revising ordinances. Accordingly, we have presented policy implications aimed at fostering the sustainability of urban regeneration areas, which are increasingly recognized as new tourism spaces, with a focus on factors influencing policy diffusion.
