    Political Science Complete is an advanced, full-text database dedicated to research on key political issues of global importance. It covers fundamental areas such as international relations, political theory, and the comparative analysis of political systems. With its extensive collection of hundreds of full-text academic journals and thousands of conference papers, it is an indispensable resource for both experienced political science researchers and analysts working in government institutions. The scale of its resources reflects the database’s true value – the total retail value (in US dollars) of subscriptions to active, full-text journal titles (excluding publishing embargoes) in Political Science Complete is $193,136.08.
    Importantly, the database distinguishes itself by its comprehensive approach to content collection. It has also rigorously selected and indexed Open Access journals. The result is a constantly growing collection of 521 active global OA titles. After successful verification and inclusion in the database, these open access journals are treated with the utmost care – they are subject to professional subject indexing and advanced, precise full-text linking, guaranteeing users quick and accurate access to the information they are looking for.
