Government and Opposition focuses on Politics, Political economy, Law, Democracy and Public administration. The research on Politics featured in Government and Opposition combines topics in other fields like Economic history, Government, Economy, Power (social and political) and Social science. While Political economy is the focus of it, it also provided insights into the studies of Opposition (politics), State (polity), Ideology, Development economics and Economic system.
The journal papers explore disciplines such as Political economy, Politics, Democracy, Public administration and Law. The studies on Political economy discussed at the journal papers can also contribute to research in the domains of Opposition (politics), State (polity), Development economics, Economy and Populism. The published papers explore research in Social science and overlapping concepts in Epistemology to expand the discourse in Politics.
The journal investigates areas of study like Political economy, Politics, Democracy, Government and Populism. The presented Political economy research focuses mostly on Voting and, on occasion, topics in Moderation. The studies in Presidential system under the umbrella field of Politics overlap with concepts in Statistical analyses.
Some problems in Democracy that were presented in it overlapped with concepts under European debt crisis and Technocracy. The tackled Government research is interrelated with Opposition (politics) which concerns subjects like Public administration, Local government and Negotiation. The studies on Populism discussed can also contribute to research in the domains of Radical right, Psychological nativism and Right wing.
A key indicator for each journal is its effectiveness in reaching other researchers with the papers published at that venue.
The chart below presents the interquartile range (first quartile 25%, median 50% and third quartile 75%) of the number of citations of articles over time.
The top authors publishing in Government and Opposition (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top authors publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top authors.

The top affiliations publishing in Government and Opposition (based on the number of publications) are:
The overall trend for top affiliations publishing in this journal is outlined below. The chart shows the number of publications at each edition of the journal for top affiliations.
The publication chance index shows the ratio of articles published by the best research institutions in the journal edition to all articles published within that journal. The best research institutions were selected based on the largest number of articles published during all editions of the journal.
The chart below presents the percentage ratio of articles from top institutions (based on their ranking of total papers).Top affiliations were grouped by their rank into the following tiers: top 1-10, top 11-20, top 21-50, and top 51+. Only articles with a recognized affiliation are considered.
During the most recent 2021 edition, 68.83% of publications had an unrecognized affiliation. Out of the publications with recognized affiliations, 20.83% were posted by at least one author from the top 10 institutions publishing in the journal. Another 12.50% included authors affiliated with research institutions from the top 11-20 affiliations. Institutions from the 21-50 range included 25.00% of all publications and 41.67% were from other institutions.
A very common phenomenon observed among researchers publishing scientific articles is the intentional selection of journals they have already attended in the past. In particular, it is worth analyzing the case when the authors participate in the same journal from year to year.
The Returning Authors Index presented below illustrates the ratio of authors who participated in both a given as well as the previous edition of the journal in relation to all participants in a given year.
The graph below shows the Returning Institution Index, illustrating the ratio of institutions that participated in both a given and the previous edition of the conference in relation to all affiliations present in a given year.
Our experience to innovation index was created to show a cross-section of the experience level of authors publishing in a journal. The index includes the authors publishing at the last edition of a journal, grouped by total number of publications throughout their academic career (P) and the total number of citations of these publications ever received (C).
The group intervals were selected empirically to best show the diversity of the authors' experiences, their labels were selected as a convenience, not as judgment. The authors were divided into the following groups:
The chart below illustrates experience levels of first authors in cases of publications with multiple authors.
