CONCLUSION
In this essay I have tried to analyze the basics of the meme-gene
analogy and to use the insights gained to describe the selective
evolution of a strategy as a memetic entity. In addition I have
shown that different sets of selective criteria may influence the
evolutionary learning potential of an organization.
Furthermore, the memetic selective analysis yields novel insights
into the policy process and places Hoppes' differential selective
context and processes in an evolutionary framework. Further
research will have to show whether this approach can be helpful
in designing effective policies and more efficient processes.
