From seat belt laws to economic recovery plans, public policy in Georgia is not only about legislating and program funding, but also about issues such as implementation, regulation and impact.
See the Aims and Scope for a complete coverage of the journal.
The Institute is very excited about this new endeavor and believes the Journal will offer readers a deeper understanding of the complexity involved with forming and executing public policy in Georgia and beyond. We also want to hear from you, so please email your manuscripts and submission ideas to gjpp@kennesaw.edu and help us further the conversation.Current Issue: Volume 1, Issue 1 (2011)
