Submission Guidelines
New Political Science: A Journal of Politics and Culture is an international, peer-reviewed journal publishing high-quality, original research, invited symposia, scholarly interviews, review essays, and book reviews. The journal aims to make the study of political science relevant to building a more democratic and egalitarian economic, social, and political order. Thus, it focuses on developing analyses that reflect a commitment to progressive social change as well as those that are within exploratory phases of development in political science. The journal adopts the broadest possible definition of “politics” and holds that political and cultural development cannot be understood in isolation from each other.New Political Science is the official journal of the Caucus for a Critical Political Science (CCPS), an independent nonprofit organization, and serves as an organ for its goals and interests.
