Aims and Scope
Government & Resilience (G&R) is an international peer-reviewed journal that publishes high-quality research on governance, public policy, institutional development, and resilience. The journal advances theoretical, empirical, and policy-oriented understanding of how governments, institutions, organizations, and communities respond and adapt to social, economic, technological, and environmental transformations.
The journal welcomes interdisciplinary and comparative research with clear relevance to international scholarly and policy debates.
Scope
Government & Resilience covers:
- Governance and Public Policy: public administration, policy design and implementation, collaborative and multilevel governance, decentralization, public-sector reform, accountability, and public service innovation.
- Institutional and Governance Resilience: institutional change, adaptive governance, crisis management, disaster governance, organizational resilience, and community resilience.
- Digital Governance: digital government, artificial intelligence, smart governance, data-driven public services, digital inclusion, and technology policy.
- Climate and Sustainability Governance: climate adaptation, environmental governance, socio-ecological resilience, natural resource governance, and sustainability transitions.
- Urban, Regional, and Rural Governance: resilient cities and communities, regional development, rural governance, spatial governance, and urban–rural transformation.
- Social and Economic Governance: social policy, inequality, economic resilience, public–private partnerships, inclusive development, and governance responses to socioeconomic change.
The journal particularly welcomes international, comparative, interdisciplinary, and Global South perspectives. Single-country or local studies should demonstrate broader theoretical, policy, or comparative relevance.
Manuscripts must have a clear connection to governance, public policy, institutions, or resilience and make an identifiable contribution to the international scholarly literature.
