Aim & Scope

The Journal of Political Science, Law & Governance (JPSLG) is an open-access, peer-reviewed scholarly journal devoted to advancing research and critical inquiry across the interconnected disciplines of political science, law, and governance. The journal serves as an academic forum for scholars, policymakers, and practitioners to explore the theoretical foundations, institutional frameworks, and practical dimensions of political and legal systems in shaping governance at local, national, and global levels.

The primary aim of JPSLG is to promote a deeper understanding of how political and legal institutions influence social order, justice, policy-making, and democratic governance. It encourages interdisciplinary perspectives that integrate political theory, public administration, international relations, constitutional studies, and legal reforms to address contemporary challenges in governance and rule of law.

The journal welcomes original research articles, theoretical papers, policy analyses, and case studies covering (but not limited to) the following areas:

  • Political theory, public policy, and comparative politics

  • Constitutional law and judicial processes

  • International law and global governance

  • Human rights, civil liberties, and social justice

  • Public administration and institutional reforms

  • Electoral systems and democratic participation

  • Conflict resolution, peace studies, and diplomacy

  • Legal education, ethics, and regulatory frameworks

Through its diverse contributions, JPSLG aims to foster dialogue among academics, policymakers, and legal experts to enhance understanding of governance systems and to advance transparent, accountable, and equitable institutions worldwide.
