EDITOR'S  NOTES


     In this issue, the Policy Studies Journal reaches the level of quality
which  we envisioned for it when we  began editing the journal at Florida
State University two years ago. We hope this is a new plateau and not just
a single peak.  Articles of General Interest by Yehezkel Dror and Susan
Hansen  explore new directions in policy studies and trace the development
of policy studies over time.  The symposium,  Distributional Impacts of
Public Policies, edited by Sheldon Danziger of the Institute for Research
and Poverty at the University of Wisconsin and Kent Portney of the Lincoln
Filene Center at Tufts University, confronts the most common and durable
source of faction in society, inequality. It asks what impact public policies
-  spending, taxing, and regulation - have on the distribution of wealth and
income  in  society.  The  Literature Review  Essays  by Charles  Davis,
J. A. Chandler, and Peter  Shearman  continue  the high quality tradition
established for the Policy Studies Journal and the Policy Studies Review by
the Literature Review Editor Mel Dubnick of the University of Kansas.
