¶ … Kumar and Narain's "Public policy and governance in India." The quality of evidence in this particular article is somewhat adequate. The author's reference some credible sources that shed insight into the changes in public policy taking place in India. However, they also reference other articles within this same journal, which seems somewhat dubious. The content discussed within this article is mostly appropriate. However, the authors have tasked themselves with detailing a wide selection of public policy issues in India, and do not explore these issues in depth. The writing style for the target audience is largely inappropriate. There are numerous grammatical and spelling errors littered throughout the article. The potential bias of the authors is demonstrated in the fact that they refer to other articles in the journal that published their article as references for certain aspects of India's public policy. In summary, this article does not meet professional standards for scholarly writing, because of its grammatical and spelling errors, as well as its reliance on articles that are published within the same journal that published their article.
Some audiences might perceive the intent and message of the authors as an introduction to this particular journal and the various articles it encases. Such a perception would largely be based on the fact that the authors spend a good deal of their article explicating facets of some of these other articles that appear in this journal. Other audiences might perceive the intent and message of this article as ineffective, since it fails to contain a thesis or an abstract, and highlights various aspects of public policy in India without a dedicated focus on any particular area -- or point, necessarily.
Were I to revise this article to make it more appropriate for an international audience, I would include a premise or thesis upon which it is based. I would also add an abstract and diligently proofread it. If it is merely an introduction to a journal I would say so, or else focus on an area of India's public policy.

It relies on the vision of the state you choose to subscribe and it depends upon the costs and benefits of a few highly imperfect social institutions: market trends and the public sector. (Bovaird, Loffler, 2003, p. 25) The public sector is a ubiquitous social institution having grown in size and complexity within the last fifty years. Nevertheless, this is a linear development.

Indian Child Welfare Act History and context of the policy The Congress enacted the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) in 1978. This Act was a result of a series of deliberations, debates, and hearings to alleviate a terrific crisis of national proportions: the separation of Indian children from their families. The act was implemented due to the high rate of removal of Indian children from their traditional families and homes, primarily their

Cannabis in the UK: De-Penalisation, Decriminalisation, or Legalisation? In October of 2015, the Parliament of the United Kingdom was forced to debate whether the current prohibition on cannabis should end in some way. "Forced" is the correct word here, because Parliament seems otherwise unwilling to address the issue, but in this case it was obliged by its own policy, whereby any petition signed by at least one hundred thousand people must
