European Political Science Review European Political Science Review is a peer-reviewed scholarly journal founded in 2009 and published by Cambridge University Press on behalf of the European Consortium for Political Research. The journal publishes original research articles, review essays, and symposia in comparative politics, international relations, political theory, and public policy, engaging with debates linked to institutions such as the European Union, Council of Europe, NATO, and the United Nations. It aims to bridge scholarship associated with universities and research centres across Europe, North America, and global institutions including the European Commission, European Parliament, and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development.
The journal was established in 2009 during a period of institutional expansion in European social science, following influential initiatives by the European Consortium for Political Research and contemporaneous developments at the London School of Economics, University of Oxford, University of Cambridge, and Sciences Po. Early editorial leadership drew on scholars affiliated with the College of Europe, Central European University, Humboldt University of Berlin, and the University of Zurich, reflecting cross-linkages with the Max Planck Society, CNRS, and the Italian National Research Council. Its creation paralleled reform debates at the European Court of Justice, Treaty of Lisbon negotiations, the Eurozone crisis, and enlargement rounds involving Turkey and the Western Balkans, situating the journal amid policy debates involving the European Central Bank and International Monetary Fund.
The journal’s scope encompasses comparative politics, international relations, political theory, public administration, and political behavior with an emphasis on methodological plurality from experimental work at Princeton University and Harvard University to qualitative analyses associated with the University of California, Berkeley and the University of Oxford. Editorial policy foregrounds double-blind peer review, ethical standards aligned with the Committee on Publication Ethics, and data transparency practices promoted by the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research and the Open Science Framework. Submission guidelines reflect expectations shaped by major funders and institutions such as the European Research Council, Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions, and the British Academy.
Published quarterly by Cambridge University Press, the journal provides online access via platforms used by academic libraries at Yale University, Columbia University, Sorbonne University, and the University of Toronto. Subscription models interact with initiatives such as Plan S and transformative agreements negotiated with Jisc and Projekt DEAL. Authors hail from institutions including the London School of Economics, Sciences Po, University of Edinburgh, University of Copenhagen, Stockholm University, and the Graduate Institute Geneva, and contributors frequently present outcomes at conferences organized by the American Political Science Association, European Consortium for Political Research, and the International Studies Association.
The journal is abstracted and indexed in major services and databases similar to Scopus, Web of Science, JSTOR, ProQuest, and EBSCO, and is discoverable via library catalogues at the British Library, Bibliothèque nationale de France, Deutsche Nationalbibliothek, and the National Library of Spain. Its metadata are harvested by aggregators and citation services tied to ORCID, CrossRef, and Google Scholar, and its articles are registered with DOI prefixes managed alongside university presses and research libraries.
Since its inception the journal has attracted attention in citation metrics compiled by Clarivate Analytics and Scopus, and has been cited in policy reports produced by the European Commission, Council of Europe, NATO Parliamentary Assembly, and OECD. Reviews in outlets associated with Cambridge University Press and responses from faculties at the University of Bologna, University of Amsterdam, KU Leuven, and Freie Universität Berlin have highlighted its role in debates on Brexit, migration crises, populism, and European integration. The journal’s influence is reflected in syllabi at Columbia University, University College London, Humboldt University, and the University of Geneva, and in citations within monographs published by Oxford University Press, Routledge, Palgrave Macmillan, and Princeton University Press.
The journal has published articles and special issues addressing the Eurozone crisis, democratic backsliding in Hungary and Poland, party system realignment in Spain and Italy, the politics of austerity in Greece, and migration policy in the Mediterranean and Balkans. Contributors have included scholars affiliated with Yale University, Harvard University, University of Oxford, European University Institute, Central European University, and University of St. Andrews, and special issues have engaged themes linked to the Treaty of Lisbon, Schengen Area, European Green Deal, Brexit negotiations, and NATO enlargement.
Editors-in-chief and board members have been drawn from leading institutions such as the London School of Economics, University of Oxford, University of Cambridge, Sciences Po, European University Institute, Central European University, University of Amsterdam, and the Hertie School. The editorial board comprises specialists associated with the Max Planck Institute for the Study of Societies, Institut d'Études Politiques de Paris, Bocconi University, KU Leuven, Stockholm School of Economics, and the University of Chicago, many of whom also serve on committees of the European Consortium for Political Research, the American Political Science Association, and national academies such as the British Academy and Academia Europaea.
