Please note that the British Journal of Political Science will be on hiatus from 16 December 2024 – 6 January 2025. The journal will continue to process existing manuscripts, but will not be accepting new manuscripts during this time.


We are delighted to announce that all articles accepted for publication in the British Journal of Political Science from the 2nd of July 2024 will be ‘open access’; published with a Creative Commons licence and freely available to read online (see the journal’s Open Access Options page for available licence options).

We have an OA option for every author: the costs of open access publication will be covered through agreements between the publisher and the author’s institution, payment of APCs from grant or other funds, or else waived entirely, ensuring every author can publish and enjoy the benefits of OA. 

Please see the journal's Open Access Options page for instructions on how to request an APC waiver.

The British Journal of Political Science (BJPolS) is a broadly based journal aiming to cover developments across a wide range of countries and specialisms. Contributions are drawn from all fields of political science (including political theory, political behaviour, public policy and international relations), and articles from scholars in related disciplines (sociology, social psychology, economics and philosophy) appear frequently. With a reputation established over 50 years of publication, the BJPolS is widely recognised as one of the premier journals in its field.
