Calls for submissions
Research in Political Sociology explores the underlying social roots and origins of politics and power, the organization, management, and process of power structures, and the effects of political decision-making and structures on the surrounding society and culture.
Aims and scope
Since its inception Research in Political Sociology (RPS) has had the primary objective of publishing original high quality manuscripts to increase our understanding of political structures and processes.
RPS is a resource that can be used by political sociologists to strengthen and develop the unique skills and interests they bring to sociology.
The books in RPS are directed towards identifying understanding and explaining the various interrelations that exist within and between social and political phenomena. This includes exploring the underlying social roots or origins of politics and power; the organisation management and process of political power structure; and the effects of political decision-making and power structures on the surrounding society and culture.
The intent of RPS is to share with political sociologists and other interested parties, including political scientists, the full array of theoretical, methodological, and substantive interests that exist in the field.
RPS is open to all theoretical, methodological, and scholarly points of view, irrespective of political content, so long as they advance our sociological understanding of political dynamics and institutional structures.
This title is aligned with our fairer society goal
We are passionate about working with researchers globally to deliver a fairer, more inclusive society. This perhaps has never been more important than in today’s divided world.
