Journal overview

Perspectives on Political Science has published leading scholars in political philosophy and featured fascinating symposia on topics ranging from Shakespeare to liberal education to the political dimension of American architecture. Our journal features a judicious mix of symposia and unsolicited articles, presenting the perspectives of established and widely published scholars, as well as the fresh views of promising newcomers.

This highly acclaimed journal offers a theoretical and deeply political perspective to classic texts in subject areas including:

  • Political philosophy
  • Literature
  • Popular culture
  • Issues in public policy
  • Religion
  • Constitutional law
  • Public policy

Perspectives on Political Science has also published symposia on the work of the best thinkers of our time, such as Joseph Cropsey, Mark Blitz, and Catherine Zuckert. In addition, it includes long, thoughtful, and often provocative book reviews.

Perspectives on Political Science does not accept responsibility for views expressed in articles, reviews, and other contributions that appear in its pages. It provides opportunities for the publication of materials that may represent divergent ideas, judgments, and opinions.

Peer Review Policy: Research articles submitted to this journal undergo a "double anonymous" peer review by at least two independent referees. Papers published from symposia are reviewed by the Journal Editor and symposium organizers.
