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. http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/journaldescription.cws_home/714836/description#description
