NOTE ABOUT HIATUS IN AUGUST 

Please note that the Journal of Public Policy will take a hiatus from processing manuscripts between August 1, 2024 and September 1, 2024. Manuscripts received during this time will be processed on or after September 1, 2023. Manuscripts that are already in the system before August 1st will continue to be processed. 


We are delighted to announce that all articles accepted for publication in Journal of Public Policy from the 2 August 2024 will be ‘open access’; published with a Creative Commons licence and freely available to read online (see the journal’s Open Access Options page for available licence options).

We have an OA option for every author: the costs of open access publication will be covered through agreements between the publisher and the author’s institution, payment of APCs from grant or other funds, or else waived entirely, ensuring every author can publish and enjoy the benefits of OA.

The Journal of Public Policy applies social science theories and concepts to significant political, economic and social issues and to the ways in which public policies are made. Its articles deal with topics of concern to public policy scholars worldwide. The journal often publishes articles that cut across disciplines, such as environmental issues, international political economy, regulatory policy and European Union processes. Its peer reviewers come from up to a dozen social science disciplines and countries across three continents, thus ensuring both analytic rigour and accuracy in reference to national and policy context.
