Political & Policy History Research
Political history concerns the distribution and wielding of political power among members of a society over time. It includes elites, political parties, interest groups, social movements, and how they engage state officials. Policy history highlights how governments design and administer laws. It reveals the institutional context in which state officials exercise authority, manage conflict, enact laws, implement public policies, distribute resources, regulate social or economic activity, and conduct foreign relations.
