About the Journal
The Nordic Administrative Journal (NAT) is an interdisciplinary, open access journal published by the Nordic Administrative Association (NAF). The journal has strong roots. It has been published since 1920 and is the oldest interdisciplinary journal in the Nordic region.
As a scientific journal, the purpose is to unite experts in public administration and scientists who research public administration. Interdisciplinary is the journal's traditional strategy. This means that the perspective on the public administration can be legal, financial, administrative scientific/organizational or political science. Particularly desirable are comparisons of Nordic administrative practice and the facilitation for discussion, partly on the basis of scientific articles, and that management experts participate in the discourse.
The journal unites the Nordic departments of NAF and also informs about their activities and about current administrative events in the Nordic countries.
The journal usually publishes three numbers annually. The journal publishes articles in the Scandinavian languages Danish, Norwegian and Swedish. Authors who do not speak Scandinavian languages can publish their articles in English.
NAT welcomes reviews, comments, book reviews and scientific articles that address these topics. Commentaries about scientific articles are also desirable. All scientific papers go through an anonymous peer review.
