Submission Guidelines and Book Reviews
Christians in Political Science invites submissions from its members for publication on this website and, occasionally, in our quarterly newsletter. All sub-disciplines of political science are welcome. Submissions include essays, reflections, and book reviews. We do not offer peer-review at this time, but all submissions will be subject to copy-editing and editorial review.
Given our organizational status, no piece will be accepted that explicitly endorses a candidate for public office or advocates for the passage of legislation at any level of government.
Submissions should be sent to communications@christiansinpoliticalscience.com and adhere to following guidelines:
Submissions must be submitted as Microsoft Word documents, we cannot accept PDFs or alternative formats at this time
