The Political Realm: Journal of Undergraduate Research in Political Science and International Relations

Volume 35 (2026)

This volume of The Political Realm celebrates 35 years of publishing undergraduate research in political science and international relations at SUNY Geneseo. This volume also marks the first digital version of the journal, constituting a meaningful evolution in the journal’s mission and impact. The shift to this digital format dramatically expands the visibility and accessibility of student research, allowing work that once circulated only on Geneseo’s campus to reach readers across campuses, regions, and even international borders. By embracing digital publication, the journal not only preserves its long-standing tradition of showcasing undergraduate scholarship but also aligns with contemporary publishing practices, ensuring that student voices contribute more widely to ongoing scholarly conversations in political science and international relations.
