《國際政治社會學》是一份同行評議的學術期刊。其目的是出版和傳播世界領先的研究，批判性地探索現代國際問題。它歡迎對地方、全球和國際變革的分析，這些分析挑戰了中央集權主義者對我們世界的理解，并鼓勵研究創造性地重新構建維系我們世界的構成二分法(例如，國家與社會、國家與國際、社會與政治)。它還尋求發展國際關系(IR)、政治和社會學之間已經建立的聯系，通過促進其他學科的學者之間的跨學科合作，這些學者正在批判性地質疑國際領域(例如人類地理學家、人類學家和政治理論家)。最后，它尋求擴大從事國際研究的社區，使其超越通常的北美和歐洲學術圈，以便更好地反映構成全球領域的各種不同的人口。它試圖促進國際關系學者和社會學等學科之間的互動。過去的主編有迪迪埃·比戈和R.B.J.沃克，[1]頻道的杰夫·懷斯曼和若昂·蓬特斯·諾蓋拉。自2017年以來，編輯黛比·萊爾(Debbie Lisle)與維姬·斯奎爾(Vicki Squire)、羅克珊·多蒂(Roxanne Doty)和亞歷克斯·霍爾(Alex Hall)擔任聯合編輯根據期刊引文報告，2016年《中國科學院學報》的影響因子為1.952，在165篇“政治學”類期刊中排名第37位，在143篇“社會學”類期刊中排名第23位。

International Political Sociology is a peer-reviewed academic journal. Its aim is to publish and disseminate world-leading research that critically explores the problems of the modern international. It welcomes analyses of local, global and international transformations that challenge statist understandings of our world, and encourages research that creatively re-works the constitutive dichotomies holding our world together (e.g. state and society, national and international, social and political). It also seeks to develop the already established connections between International Relations (IR), Politics and Sociology by fostering transdisciplinary collaborations between scholars in other disciplines who are critically interrogating the international sphere (e.g. Human Geographers, Anthropologists, and Political Theorists). Finally, it seeks to broaden the community that engages with international studies beyond the usual circuits of North American and European scholarship so as to better reflect the diverse populations constituting the global realm.It attempts to promote interaction between international relations scholars and disciplines such as sociology. Past editors-in-chief have been Didier Bigo and R.B.J. Walker,[1] Jef Huysmans and Jo?o Pontes Nogueira.
