Scandinavian Political Studies (SPS) is the leading journal on politics and public administration in the Nordic countries, and is an indispensable source for research and teaching on Nordic politics at the national, supranational, regional and local level. Covering new scholarship in all areas of political science and public administration, the journal publishes widely on political and administrative decision-making, public policies, electoral issues, political institutions and public administration. SPS welcomes contributions that draw on Nordic data, or that have clear relevance for the politics of Nordic countries.
