Politics and Religion, a new journal of the APSA Religion and Politics Organized Section, will provide original research into all aspects of the relationship between politics and religion around the world. The impact of religion on political attitudes, decision-making, and public policy development will be analyzed, with topics ranging from abortion laws, sex education in schools, and stem cell research to transnational terrorism, morality, social justice, and human rights.

Politics and Religion will be multidisciplinary and international in scope, with contributions coming from all relevant areas, including political science, law, philosophy, sociology, history, area studies, and economics. Studies of public religion, secular-religious conflicts, and political divisions within a religion from within and outside the Judeo-Christian tradition, including works from Islamic, Hindu, Buddhist and scholars of Eastern traditions are especially welcome. Book reviews will also be part of the journals coverage.

Several of the APSA Organized Sections have journal subscriptions as part of their section membership benefits, or have sponsored journals as part of their activities. These section journal opportunities provide access to scholarship across a number of fields and include leading journals.  Find out more.
