Review of Politics

Aims & Scope

The Review of Politics publishes primarily philosophical and historical studies of politics, especially those concentrating on political theory and American political thought.

Thoughtful scholarly reflections on all aspects of politics - including analysis of institutions and techniques, analysis of literary reflections on politics, political interpretations of literary works, and constitutional theory and analysis - are also welcome.

Some of the first essays advocating "realism" were published in The Review, as well as articles from its opponents in international relations; both perspectives are accepted parts of the journal's coverage.
