AIMS AND SCOPE

The Brazilian Political Science Review is published by the Brazilian Political Science Association, and is the only English language political science and international relations journal from Brazil. It is to be published electronically twice a year.

The main goal of the BPSR is to provide a broad venue for the diffusion of high-quality political science work produced in Brazil, and abroad, thus broadening the exchange of ideas with the international political science community. Following the model of successful journals with similar purposes, such as the Scandinavian Political Studies, European Journal of Political Research and the Brazilian Journal of Biology, the BPSR will only publish new research, subject to a process of blind peer review.

The BPSR welcomes submissions of articles, ongoing research notes and review essays from political scientists and researchers from related disciplines. The review’s scope is broad, as it will consider without prejudice submissions representing the entire range of political science research – theoretical or empirical, cross-national or focused on a single-country, quantitative or qualitative.
