Aims & Scope

Perspectives on Federalism aims at publishing high quality papers at the forefront of the study of federalism in different disciplinary fields. Interdisciplinary research papers are also very much welcomed. Perspectives on Federalism is an open forum for interdisciplinary debate about federalism at all levels of government: sub-national, national, and supra-national at both regional and global levels. A special focus is given to the developments of European integration. Perspectives on Federalism is divided into three sections. Along with essays and review articles, it also publishes very short notes to provide information and updated comments about political, economic and legal issues in federal states, regional organizations, and international organizations at global level, whenever they are relevant to scholars of federalism. Perspectives on Federalism publishes original contributions from different disciplinary viewpoints as the subject of federalism requires.
