About the Journal

Narasi Kebijakan Publik (Journal of Public Policy Studies) is a peer-reviewed, open-access scholarly journal dedicated to the study, analysis, and development of public policy. Published by Narasi Publishing, the journal provides an academic forum for researchers, academics, policymakers, public officials, practitioners, and other scholars to examine contemporary issues of public policy from theoretical, conceptual, empirical, comparative, and interdisciplinary perspectives.

The name “Narasi Kebijakan Publik” reflects the journal's commitment to menarasikan kebijakan publik—documenting, examining, and critically interpreting the processes through which public policies are formulated, implemented, evaluated, and transformed. Public policy is understood not merely as a formal governmental decision, but as a dynamic process shaped by institutions, political interests, social conditions, economic considerations, public participation, and the changing needs of society.

Narasi Kebijakan Publik welcomes original research articles, conceptual and theoretical studies, empirical research, comparative studies, policy analyses, case studies, and critical discussions concerning public policy and governance. The journal covers, but is not limited to, public administration, public governance, policy formulation and implementation, policy evaluation, local and regional government, public services, regulatory policy, development policy, social policy, economic policy, environmental policy, digital governance, public participation, institutional reform, and sustainable development.

The journal encourages interdisciplinary scholarship that connects public policy with law, economics, political science, sociology, public administration, technology, and other relevant fields. Particular attention is given to studies that provide critical insights into policy challenges and contribute to evidence-based, responsive, inclusive, and sustainable public governance.
