History
The Michigan Journal of Political Science was established in 1981 at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor. It has been published biannually every year since. Originally, the journal published only papers within the field of political science proper, excluding public policy, law, and other related fields. In 1991, however, the journal began expanding its focus to include other fields such as sociology, history, public policy, economics and political philosophy, so long as they related to political affairs. In 1995, it was recognized by UNESCO as one of the top political science journals (including undergraduate, graduate student, and professional journals) worldwide. Currently, the journal targets academic institutions, libraries, government offices, and think tanks, as well as a limited private readership. Nearly a fifth of the journal's readership lies outside the United States.
