Johan Skytte Prize in Political Science

The Johan Skytte Prize in Political Science is administered by the Johan Skytte Foundation at Uppsala University, tracing its origins to a 1622 donation by Swedish statesman Johan Skytte. Established in 1995, the prize recognizes scholars whose theoretical and empirical work has made the most valuable contributions to the study of political science. Laureates are selected by the foundation through a rigorous evaluation process, and recipients receive a monetary award and certificate. Since its inception, the prize has gained prestige in the social sciences community and is sometimes referred to as the “Nobel Prize for Political Science.” The award ceremony is held annually in Uppsala, honoring scholars from around the world.
