Scope

EUP's aim is to stimulate debate and provide a forum to bridge theoretical and empirical analysis on the political unification of Europe. While the journal represents no particular school or approach, it has served as an outlet for applications of rational choice theory. It also frequently contains articles on decision making in European institutions such as the Council of Ministers or the European Parliament and analyses of public attitudes towards the EU. The journal has published special issues on such topics as euro-skepticism, constitution-building, and the impact of the EU on ideological competition.


Data replication

EUP requires all authors to make their data publicly available once their article is accepted for publication. The data replication policy of the journal - in common with that of many journals in the sciences - aims to render the research process more transparent and cumulative.
