Summary

The journal Leviathan devotes itself to enlightenment and criticism in the social sciences. It publishes current research and debate on topics drawn from politics, culture, economics, philosophy, law and society.

The journal is read by practitioners from academic research and education, politics and administration as well as communication and media. With its cross-disciplinary and cross-methodological approach it bridges the gap between theory, empirical evidence and political practice.
