Lectio Socialis is a distinguished international, double-blind peer-reviewed journal supported by an international editorial board. Our primary mission is to provide a dynamic and autonomous platform for scholars worldwide to disseminate high-quality, English-language research that addresses the complex challenges of modern societies. Operating on a continuous publication model, the journal ensures the rapid and timely dissemination of scholarly work to the global academic community.

Starting from 2026, the journal’s central objective is to contribute to the advancement of transformative political inquiry. We believe that political science should serve as a catalyst for social progress, empowerment, and meaningful policy change. Lectio Socialis is dedicated to amplifying scholarly discourse that examines structural inequalities, promotes inclusive governance, and fosters a more just and equitable global society through rigorous, evidence-based research.

The primary focus of Lectio Socialis is political science, encompassing its major subfields such as political theory, comparative politics, and international relations. The journal serves as a specialized venue for the rigorous analysis of power dynamics, institutional frameworks, and political behavior within diverse socio-economic contexts.

Thematic Priorities:

• Political Analysis of Global Challenges: We prioritize research addressing critical global issues, including gender politics (with a focus on systemic violence and equity) and environmental governance (the politics and policy of climate change).
• Political Economy & Social Equity: Studies examining the intricate interplay between economic structures and political outcomes, with a particular interest in poverty alleviation, inequality, and the pursuit of social justice.
• Inclusive Governance & Public Policy: Analysis of institutional designs and political processes that enhance democratic participation and address the needs of marginalized or underrepresented groups.
• Interdisciplinary Boundaries: While centered on political science, the journal encourages dialogue with public administration and economics. We welcome interdisciplinary submissions that bridge these fields with history, philosophy, or sociology, provided they maintain a clear connection to political science themes.

Accepted Article Types: To ensure the highest academic rigor and impact, the journal exclusively accepts:

1. Original Research Articles: Works presenting new empirical findings or innovative theoretical frameworks utilizing robust qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods.
2. Review Articles: Comprehensive, state-of-the-art evaluations that synthesize current literature, identify research gaps, and propose future directions within the field of political science.
