Policy Legitimization is a process within the field of comparative education policy by which borrowed policies are conferred credibility and acceptability through alignment with dominant institutional norms, expert validation, or rhetorical framing, thereby distinguishing it from mere policy transfer or adoption by emphasizing the socio-political construction of policy worthiness.
