Launched in February 2010, British Politics and Policy is a multidisciplinary academic blog run by the London School of Economics and Political Science. The blog is primarily concerned with increasing public understanding of British politics and policy by providing accessible academic commentary and research. Content for the blog is created by Managing Editor Artemis Photiadou, Assistant Editor Luke Temple and General Editor Patrick Dunleavy. Artemis is currently working towards her PhD at LSE and previously worked as a researcher at both UCL’s Constitution Unit and Full Fact. Luke's background lies in Geography and Politics, he is currently a Research Associate on the LIVEWHAT project. Finally Patrick is Professor of Political Science and Public Policy at LSE, where he has worked since 1979. During this time Patrick has published numerous books and over 50 journal articles on political science theory, British politics and urban politics. BPP readers can expect content committed to communicating social science research and commentary in ways that enhance public debate and understanding. New content is uploaded on a daily basis, occasionally multiple times a day.
