Asian Journal of Comparative Politics

Aims & Scope

The Asian Journal of Comparative Politics (AJCP) is a journal of Comparative Politics with the focus on Asia.

Despite the enormous transformations of the world into the new millennium in terms of the number and characters of sovereign countries and in terms of deep tide of globalization permeating every part of the globe, the genre of Comparative Politics has often been constrained by the original paradigms which developed largely in the third quarter of the last century like voting behavior, party cleavages, democratization, state strength, and no less importantly primordial emphasis on Western Europe and North America.
