 Policies
 ========
 
-An event loop policy is a global per-process object that controls
-the management of the event loop. Each event loop has a default
-policy, which can be changed and customized using the policy API.
-
-A policy defines the notion of *context* and manages a
-separate event loop per context. The default policy
-defines *context* to be the current thread.
-
-By using a custom event loop policy, the behavior of
-:func:`get_event_loop`, :func:`set_event_loop`, and
-:func:`new_event_loop` functions can be customized.
+An event loop policy is a global (per-interpreter) object
+used to get and set the current :ref:`event loop <asyncio-event-loop>`,
+as well as create new event loops.
+The default policy can be :ref:`replaced <asyncio-policy-get-set>` with
+:ref:`built-in alternatives <asyncio-policy-builtin>`
+to use different event loop implementations,
+or substituted by a :ref:`custom policy <asyncio-custom-policies>`
+that can override these behaviors.
+
+The :ref:`policy object <asyncio-policy-objects>`
+gets and sets a separate event loop per *context*.
+This is per-thread by default,
+though custom policies could define *context* differently.
+
+Custom event loop policies can control the behavior of
+:func:`get_event_loop`, :func:`set_event_loop`, and :func:`new_event_loop`.
 
 Policy objects should implement the APIs defined
 in the :class:`AbstractEventLoopPolicy` abstract base class.
