Answer:

Public policy.

Step-by-step explanation:

The term public policy refers to the expressed goals of a government institution, supported by either punishments or rewards. A public policy is the broad strategy a particular government in a country uses to do its job of serving its citizens effectively and efficiently.

In order to maintain law and order, serve and support governmental policies and institutions, or operate a purposeful system of government in a society, it is very important that the government puts in place a set of longer-term actions that addresses such issues either by punishments or rewards. Therefore, a public policy translates a government's manifestos, or political visions into social programmes and actions to give a desired change in a society.

In a nutshell, a public policy represents a constitution, legislative acts and judicial stance of a particular government which encourages active citizenship in a given society.

Some examples of the areas where public policy are used are transportation, health care, education, finance etc.
