This track focuses both on the policy process and the substance of public policy. A policy process focus would examine how both private and public interests are represented in the governmental policymaking process. Two of the most important means of representing such interests are via direct lobbying of elected and appointed governmental officials and through the communication of ideas and proposals in various forms of media.
