Nova Scotia Policy Review changes its name and casts its policy net wider

The Nova Scotia Policy Review has changed its name to Coastlands: The Maritimes Policy Review.

Started in June 2007 as a quarterly and published out of Bridgetown, Nova Scotia, the magazine will under its new name be able to cover the same politics, culture and justice issues, but casting a net over all the Maritime provinces. In a note to readers, editor Rachel Brighton said

Under the new title the magazine will offer an even richer selection of digests, short articles, essays, book reviews, maps, cartoons, comment, statistics and satire. Coastlands will continue to tackle politics, culture and justice with style and spark, as it searches for sustainable solutions to pressing problems.

The magazine, now in its 3rd year, skipped its usual June issue because of the Nova Scotia provincial election and has extended its subscriptions by one issue. The next issue, under the new Coastlands brand will appear in September.
