Our permanent study group XIII on public policy now warmly invites abstracts for the 2022 conference of the European Group for Public Administration, taking place in Lisbon from September 6-9 2022. More information about the conference can be found here <https://www.egpa-conference2022.org/> https://www.egpa-conference2022.org/ This year’s workshop topic is “Who complies how with what? Advancing compliance research in policy implementation”. To advance research on compliance and noncompliance, we invite contributions that compare the conceptualization, operationalization, and antecedents of compliance in different disciplines and for different targets and address blind spots in contemporary scholarship.
