The second issue of Political Studies this year sees publication of research that focuses upon
a number of core issues in the discipline.It opens with a paper by Pippa Norr is and Ronald
Inglehart on the cultural attitudes of Muslims living in Western countries. This profoundly
topical paper draws what will seem to many to be some broadly positive conclusions about
the possibilities of political integration. Papers by David Miller and Avery Kolers consider
differing aspects of the relation between justice and territory. The contributions of Andrew
Volmert and Ben Saunders focus on different aspects of what counts as ‘democratic’,while
the papers by Ayhan Akman and Brian Wampler interrogate different aspects of the
relationship between civil society, the state and participation. Peter Verovšek considers
Jürgen Habermas’ concrete work on the politics of Europe, while Gulshan Khan looks at
the relationship between the work of Habermas and Michael Oakeshott.Papers by Carsten
Daugbjerg and Kim Sønderskov and by Paula Casal offer two sets of insights on environ-
mental politics, the one focused on green markets and the other on green taxes. Christoph
Steinhardt examines the link between institutional confidence and trust in Mainland China,
and Cillian McGrattan explores the downside of truth-recovery mechanisms in post-
conflict societies, through a discussion of the case of Northern Ireland. The issue closes
with Liam Stanley’s reponse to Martin Carstensen’s paper ‘Ideas are Not as Stable as
Political Scientists Want Them to Be: A Theory of Incremental Ideational Change’,which
was published in October last year (volume 59, issue 3).
