Focus and Scope

International Journal of Governance and Political Sociology (IJGPS) focuses on advancing interdisciplinary research that examines the intersections between governance, political systems, and social structures.

The journal provides a platform for exploring how political dynamics, institutional frameworks, and social processes influence governance, policymaking, and societal development across various contexts. Through the publication of high-quality articles, theoretical insights, and empirical research, IJGPS seeks to deepen the understanding of how governance practices shape and are shaped by political, economic, and social forces.

The scope of the journal covers a broad range of topics, including political sociology, public governance, democratic processes, institutional analysis, and political participation. It also delves into issues such as policy development, social movements, state-society relations, and the impact of globalization on political structures and governance models.

The journal welcomes research that explores the role of political institutions in promoting or hindering social equity, democracy, and human rights, as well as the influence of political ideologies on governance strategies. International Journal of Governance and Political Sociology (IJGPS) encourages contributions that examine governance in emerging democracies, corruption, political accountability, and the sociological underpinnings of governance models. The journal also invites studies that investigate political sociology’s role in understanding policy implementation, public administration, and the relationship between political elites and civil society.
