Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal examines contemporary European politics, with a focus on party politics, including the strategies and transformations of radical left and new anti-establishment parties. It also explores foreign policy orientations, the role of crises as analytical categories, and the dynamics of European integration, such as the Single Market. The journal frequently employs comparative analysis across European nations and sometimes contrasts them with other regions like the United States.
