Policy and Society is a leading international open access journal that publishes peer-reviewed research on critical issues in policy theory and practice at the local, national and international levels. The journal aims to understand the origin, workings and implications of policies within their broader political, social and economic contexts.

Policy and Society publishes several themed issues each year and from 2023, will also publish non-themed individual submissions. 

Non-thematic individual submissions should advance thinking and understanding of central and emerging issues, concepts and methods in the policy sciences. We particularly welcome manuscripts offering critical analysis of key theories, concepts, or comparative trends in public policy. The topic must be of interest to a broad range of scholars in public policy. Case studies and detailed explorations of specific issue areas are generally discouraged unless directly related to advancing theoretical thinking in public policy.
