Presentation
The research group called the “groupe d’études sur les dynamiques politiques”of the association Groupe d’études sur le Cameroun (GEC) launches for the promotion and dissemination of research, a scientific journal entitled Territoires politiques; a journal devoted to the study of politics in its many manifestations, it intends to give prominence to empirical research by publishing thematic issues and various issues three times a year. The journal Territoires politiques aims to be the place par excellence for debates and controversies as long as they are informed and respectful of ethics and the requirements of scientific courtesy. This first issue will be devoted exclusively to unpublished articles with a strong empirical basis. However, critical readings are highly appreciated. In addition, in the future, the journal Territoires politiques will publish bibliographic and professional chronicles “making it possible to take stock of a technical or professional file, to initiate a debate on the future of the profession of political scientist and of the environment in which in short, we exercise it to reinforce the need for reflexivity on our professional practices and values, which conditions our ability to attest to the social utility of our knowledge and know-how”.
Number led by Jean Njoya, Professor of Political Science and Jean Daniel Bombela, Doctorate PhD in Political Science

1/ Review of the article (anonymously) by two reviewers (one internal and one external)
The evaluation takes into account the following criteria in particular: positioning in relation to the available literature; suitability of the method to the object, from the empirical field to the hypotheses formulated and demonstrated; contributions to knowledge and political science in particular; editorial skills. Each evaluation, whether internal or external, obeys simple ethical rules. In the event that the first two reviewers’ issue conflicting opinions, the editorial staff may authorize the use of a third expertise.The evaluations carried out by internal evaluators and, where applicable, by external experts called upon obey the following fundamental principles:
- Integrity: The integrity of internal evaluators and external experts is the basis of the trust and credibility placed in their judgment. Evaluators judge all elements fairly and do not allow themselves to be influenced in their assessment by their own interests or by others.
- Objectivity: the judgments made are supported by elements present in the submitted article and are motivated by reference to the state of knowledge available in the various fields of the social sciences of politics.
- Consistency: the evaluators examine with the same attention the various articles submitted to the journal. Each evaluation follows a similar evaluation grid in order to achieve the greatest equality of treatment and lead to similar findings and decisions in comparable configurations.
- Confidentiality: the reviewers undertake to keep confidential the content of the deliberations that prepare the decisions of the Editorial Board.
- Involvement: the reviewers mobilize their skills to assume their responsibilities and thus fully contribute to the quality of the journal's editorial policy.
