Polity is an international publisher in the social sciences and humanities—featuring books by some of the world’s greatest thinkers. They are devoted to getting their books out into the world.

Have you experienced a Polity display at a Library of Social Science Book Exhibit (see photo below)? LSS features Polity titles at every one of our conferences on a full table (and often on two or three tables). Conferees are invariably excited to discover Polity’s new and significant publications.

To the right and below are a few of Polity’s famous authors with a link to one of their most popular books. Please click through the link for information on ordering at very special, discounted rates.
