Quarterly Journal of Political Science
In the last half-century, social scientists have engaged in a methodologically focused and substantively far-reaching mission to make the study of politics scientific. The mutually reinforcing components in this pursuit are the development of positive theories and the testing of their empirical implications. Although this paradigm has been associated with many advances in the understanding of politics, no leading journal of political science is dedicated primarily to the publication of positive political science.The Quarterly Journal of Political Science will solicit, review, and publish the highest quality manuscripts in positive political science and contemporary political economy. The substantive content of the journal will be broad and eclectic, including cutting-edge research on any aspect of private, local, national, comparative, or international politics. The methodological approach will be analytical, focusing on positive political theories, empirical tests of those theories, and the measurement of causal relationships. In their commitment to making the Journal the premier interdisciplinary publication of scientific research on politics, the editors welcome submissions not only from political scientists but also from scholars in cognate disciplines such as economics, business, and law.

Regulation & Governance
Regulation & Governance serves as the leading platform for the study of regulation and governance by political scientists, lawyers, sociologists, historians, criminologists, psychologists, anthropologists, economists and others. Research on regulation and governance, once fragmented across various disciplines and subject areas, has emerged at the cutting edge of paradigmatic change in the social sciences. Through the peer-reviewed journal Regulation & Governance, we seek to advance discussions between various disciplines about regulation and governance, promote the development of new theoretical and empirical understanding, and serve the growing needs of practitioners for a useful academic reference. Regulation & Governance reaches an international audience, and showcases research addressing the world's most pressing audit and risk challenges, across all fields of regulation. It addresses issues that transcend both intellectual and geographic boundaries and reports empirical results with broad implications. With guidance from an outstanding editorial board and carefully selected reviewers, Regulation & Governance publishes significant new studies of regulatory governance, review articles on major lines of research in the field, and occasional shorter essays exploring new insights and directions for study. Published quarterly by Wiley-Blackwell, Regulation & Governance is essential reading for academics, regulators, and legal experts working in business and civil society. The editorial team is committed to open and critical dialogue and encourages scholarly papers from different disciplines, using diverse methodologies, and from all areas of the world.

Representation: Journal of Representative Democracy
Representation is a journal of long standing repute. It has been publishing since 1960 and has a general interest in all matters relating to the theme of representative democracy and to this end it has established itself as a recognised journal of record and comment both in the UK and internationally. While building on its present strengths, the new editors wish to expand the journal's remit and introduce more normative concepts of democracy and representation, to consider more than parliamentary versions of representation and to broaden the geographic scope of the journal. This change in scope follows two paths. Firstly, it seeks contributors who are interested in exploring the interface between democratic practice and theory. In particular, this focus seeks contributions that apply theoretical insights to actual examples of current practice. Some examples of areas where theoretical discussions could make a significant contribution to the actual current practices are debates within topics such as: (i) overcoming the democratic deficit, (ii) ensuring adequate representation for women and minorities in liberal democratic pluralist societies, (iii) finding ways of modernising elections, and (iv) voter education and (v) debating the need, extent and plausibility of democratic institutions at a trans-national, or even global, level. Secondly, while not neglecting the current focus of the journal, we would like to expand its international coverage so that the journal will offer our readers insights in the state of democracy worldwide. We hope that the widening of the journal's scope will bring with it a new set of readers and especially those working on the interface between theory and practice. Representation will offer a place for debates and scholarship, both empirical and normative, on democrat practices around the world. The introduction of the theoretical dimension does not preclude a focus on empirical studies of non-electoral forms of representation and decision-making. Indeed, it is just these areas where we believe a theoretical input would be valuable. As in the past, the new editors of Representation are interested in furthering links with national and international groups involved in the study of elections, representation and voting systems and will continue to publish high quality papers on elections, institutions and electoral systems. AIMS Representation - the journal of representative democracy - has the following aims:- * To continue to publish cutting edge articles about the study of elections and voting systems throughout the world. * To encourage debate on democrat practices around the world. * To critically explore the interface between democratic practice and theory. * To produce special issues devoted to questions of democracy and representation; whether they be in a single- country or region, or across a wider subject such as representation of minorities. * To attract an audience of academics and students, journalists, election practitioners and all those interested in the nature of representative democracy including informed lay readers.
Representations
Representations publishes sophisticated, highly readable essays on the workings of culture, both past and present. Long known for its innovative essays on art, intellectual and legal history, science and gender studies, theories of history, and literary phenomena such as authorship and national and ethnic canon formation, Representations’ reach currently extends as well to such topics as the history of the emotions, national identity, new media, and the renewal of aesthetics in criticism. A subscription to Representations puts you at the center of a collective exploration of the boundary between nature and art, facts and artifacts. Unashamedly intellectual, the journal insists that representing is itself central to all forms of human action--indeed, to our very notion of what humans are and what action is.
