The journal focuses primarily on South African politics, but
not exclusively so. Over the years Politikon has published
articles by some of the world’s leading political
scientists, including Arend Lijphart, Samuel Huntingdon, and
Philippe Schmitter.
It has also featured important contributions from South Africa’s
leading political philosophers, political scientists and
international relations experts. It has proved an influential
journal, particularly in debates over the merits of South Africa’s
constitutional reforms (in 1983 and 1994).
In the last few years special issues have focused on women and
politics in South Africa, and the South African election of 1999.
Recent articles have looked at the negotiated transition from
apartheid to democracy, aspects of identity politics in
post-apartheid South Africa and issues of democratic
consolidation.
