<h2>18.5.2.4. Event loop policies and the default policy<a class="headerlink" href="#event-loop-policies-and-the-default-policy" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
<p>Event loop management is abstracted with a <em>policy</em> pattern, to provide maximal
flexibility for custom platforms and frameworks. Throughout the execution of a
process, a single global policy object manages the event loops available to the
process based on the calling context. A policy is an object implementing the
<a class="reference internal" href="#asyncio.AbstractEventLoopPolicy" title="asyncio.AbstractEventLoopPolicy"><code class="xref py py-class docutils literal"><span class="pre">AbstractEventLoopPolicy</span></code></a> interface.</p>

explicitly, since the default global policy is sufficient.</p>
<p>The default policy defines context as the current thread, and manages an event
loop per thread that interacts with <a class="reference internal" href="asyncio.html#module-asyncio" title="asyncio: Asynchronous I/O, event loop, coroutines and tasks."><code class="xref py py-mod docutils literal"><span class="pre">asyncio</span></code></a>. The module-level functions
