Scholars from across the country examine the impact of the journal The Public Interest on U.S. policy in a range of areas during the 40-year life of the publication. The Public Interest was founded in 1965 by Daniel Bell, Nathan Glazer, and Irving Kristol.  After providing the forum for publication of many influential ideas for economic, educational, and social policy reform, it ceased publication in 2005.
