The new issue of Politikon: The IAPSS Journal of Political Science as always presents a very diverse set of contributions. The issue features articles examining global health cooperation and pandemic treaties by Lala Jafarova, Lebanon's sectarian politics and French colonial legacy by Judy El Baba, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through a decolonial lens by Catalina Catana and Simen Ekeberg, and debates about identity and democracy by Sung Jun Han. Stephanie Mae Pedron's essays in the Conversations section advocates for expanding non-citizen voting rights in the US. The issue includes two book reviews focused on feminist movements and gender politics in China and Russia. These diverse contributions converge around critical questions of how political systems navigate inclusion, representation, and the enduring impact of historical structures on contemporary governance.

The journal also continues a dialogue on inequalities in academic publishing through Abel Polese's piece, which offers practical insights for emerging scholars.
