SISP

the reason why

Established in 2007, this standing group intends to fill up an empty space within the Italian Society of Political Science -SISP, and to promote the political science approach to policy studies as a relevant field of scientific research and production of usable knowledge.

mission statement

(adopted after the 2007 meeting)
The group aims to promote discourses, concerns and analyses consistent with the political science’s perspective on public policy — especially within the Italian public sphere and scientific communities.
Hence, the group encourages and supports the debate on conceptual tools, methods, hypotheses, subjects of research.
