 Policy and Society is an interdisciplinary journal exploring the social origins of policy and its manifestations in broader political and economic contexts. The Journal seeks to explore the forces and relationships that shape public policy and the impact this has on governments and societies. The Journal welcomes submissions that deal with policy issues at the local, national and/or international level.
Each issue of Policy and Society is typically devoted to a single policy theme. The theme may be specific to a particular social science discipline or, preferably, cut across disciplines. Similarly, the themes may be country-specific or comparative in scope.
Issues normally consist of a short introduction (approximately 2 – 3,000 words) and 5 - 7 articles (approximately 6,000 - 8,000 words). Each issue is normally overseen by a special guest editor.
Proposals should be approximately 3-4 pages in length and address each of the following criteria:
- Statement of policy area to be explored
- Statement on the significance of this area to public policy research
- Statement on the rationale for the proposed Journal issue.
- A list of the proposed chapters and chapter titles
- A list of the names, affiliations and contact details of the proposed contributors
All manuscripts are blind refereed. Proposals should be forwarded to
