Institute to Co-host Internationally Acclaimed Review of Policy Research

2 July, 2003

Arlington, VA – The Potomac Institute for Policy Studies has been chosen by the Policy Studies Organization (PSO), an interdisciplinary group affiliated with the American Political Science Association, to co-host and principally edit one of PSO’s two academic journals, Review of Policy Research. The Review of Policy Research is an international, peer-reviewed journal devoted to the dissemination of research and insightful commentary on the outcomes and consequences of policy change in domestic and comparative contexts. The Journal publishes manuscripts that examine issues at the intersection of policy and administration in fields such as science, technology, globalization, environment, education, health, privacy, demographics, and security. In addition to articles and symposia, the Review features brief critiques of current research by scholars and policy practitioners as well as reviews of books, films, and electronic and other media. Institute President, Professor Dennis McBride will serve as Editor. Professors Paul Rich and Harrell Rogers will be Co-Editors.

Dr. McBride noted “This formal partnership with the Policy Studies Organization is yet another confirmation of Potomac’s reputation for non-partisan, fierce objectivity. Potomac’s ‘inside the beltway’ expertise, coupled with the Review’s presence in hundreds of libraries and academic organizations worldwide, as well as Blackwell’s international leadership in top-tier publishing make this a multi-way winning combination. And this is only one of several innovations that the PSO is undertaking to broaden and deepen its role as a world class professional society.”

More information on the journal please see the Institute’s website at www.PotomacInstitute.org or the Policy Studies Organization website at www.ipsonet.org/page.cgi.
