CRITICAL POLICY ANALYSIS: Theory Methods Practice -A new peer-reviewed 
international journal for policy analysis and democratic governance, 
Critical Policy Analysis offers an innovative forum for researchers, 
policy-makers and practitioners to challenge mainstream approaches to 
policy analysis and democratic governance.  

 

Recognising the social and human aspects of public policy, it seeks to 
draw attention to critical, interpretive and discursive forms of policy 
analysis and creative ways of combining qualitative and quantitative 
methods with empirical and normative concerns.

 

The journal's focus on the interaction between theory and practice is 
reflected in its structure, with room for academic journal articles; 
forum articles contributing to current debate and opinions; and review 
articles reflecting on published work.
