Politics of Public Policy Seminar
The Politics of Public Policy series bridges political science and policy analysis. Its aim is to explore how politics shapes important areas of domestic public policy and how public policy, in turn, shapes important aspects of domestic politics. Distinguished scholars interested in these intertwined issues will present diverse, cutting-edge research, ranging from cross-national and historical investigations to analyses of current policy debates.
The seminar usually meets monthly on Wednesdays from 12:00-1:15 p.m. in Room A002 at ISPS, 77 Prospect Street in tandem with the American Politics Workshop.
Organizer: Jacob S. Hacker, Political Science.
