About the list

Palgrave Macmillan is a clear market-leader in Politics textbook publishing with best-selling titles in almost every subject area. Innovation to meet the needs of students and lecturers is very much the watchword of our list from Developments in British Politics to Andrew Heywood's Politics 2e in the Palgrave Foundations series.

Our distinguished academic list ranges from The British General Election of 2005 (Shortlisted for the Channel 4 Political Awards 2005) to the memoirs of Pérez de Cuéllar. Alongside its strengths in political reference and books by practitioners of politics, we publish a wide range of more specialist scholarly books, many in association with leading academic institutions.

Recent areas of expansion have included our rapidly growing list in International Relations and International Political Economy and the widest range offered by any publisher on the European Union.
