GPPR is excited to launch our 2019 Spring Edition on Rethinking Governance. Each year, GPPR publishes a peer-reviewed journal that tackles a relevant theme in policy analysis. In 2018, GPPR focused on Uncertainty; in 2017, Disruption.
The 2019 Spring Edition theme, Rethinking Governance, is designed to encourage scholars and policymakers to think beyond the challenges we see in governance – fragility in institutions, erosion of democracy, increasing polarization – and to instead present cutting-edge, innovative solutions for a new era of global and domestic governance.
The articles address themes ranging from the refugee crisis and higher education to climate change and LGBTQ rights. You can find the full spring edition at www.ggprspring.com or access the articles individually below:
