Reflections on 75 years of Public Administration and Development.

Public Administration & Development is a journal that focuses on the intersections between public administration and development studies, particularly in non-Western contexts. As the second oldest British public administration journal, it has a rich history that reflects the nature of academic publishing and the discipline of public administration. The journal has evolved from its practitioner origins to become a leading academic journal, with a strong international focus. The 75th anniversary special issue includes articles that explore various topics, such as autocracies in Central Asia, gender equality, decolonizing knowledge, and disaster management. The journal aims to continue adapting to new challenges, embracing diverse perspectives, and remaining at the forefront of discussions on public administration and development.
