Publish your disciplinary work in the Public Administration Review

Colleagues, I received this very interesting brief note in my role as a member of the American Society for Public Administration. I imagine this will be of greatest interest to social scientists, but if you have some research that would be relevant to this outlet and their "Public Administration and the Disciplines" section of Public Administration Review, please do consider submitting your work. Your work may gain attention from government officials and others interested in putting your ideas into practice!


------
Public Administration Review (PAR) is seeking articles from scholars outside of public administration on topics of importance to Public Administration.  This feature of PAR, called “Public Administration and the Disciplines” acknowledges the partnership that exists between PA and other disciplines, and seeks to facilitate strong intellectual exchanges across field boundaries, in both directions, that will advance the theory and practice of public administration.  Writers of  “PA and the Disciplines” essays usually will emphasize developments in their fields that might contribute to advancing knowledge about public administration and, conversely, how current scholarship in public administration might advance knowledge in other fields. Articles are expected to reflect cutting-edge developments, show why these developments are important for PA, and also show why public administration scholars’ attention to a wide variety of theories may improve research validity. Proposals and submissions should be sent to Public Administration and the Disciplines Editor Rosemary O’Leary, Edwin O. Stene Distinguished Professor (oleary@ku.edu).
