LSE Public Policy Review

Aims & Scope

LSE Public Policy Review is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal which is published quarterly and draws principally (but not exclusively) on authors from across the LSE’s 19 departments. Issues are thematic and concentrate on a key topic at the heart of current debates in public policy.

Articles in each issue take different disciplinary perspectives, encouraging interdisciplinary collaboration and analysis at the forefront of current thinking. As a result, each issue presents a comprehensive approach to the specific theme and an analysis that is academically rigorous but also readily accessible to all readers.

The journal publishes original research papers, conceptual articles, review papers written for a general readership, in non-technical language aimed at a wide audience including government, business and policy-makers, as well as academics and students. LSEPPR seeks to actively contribute to the study and development of public and social policy, public administration and public management.
