Top 20 Articles of July 2025

For the third consecutive month, The CEA Critic article "Reading Comprehension Skills of English Majors at Two Midwestern Universities" tops the list of most-read Hopkins Press journal articles, followed closely behind by "The Myth of Democratic Resilience" from Journal of Democracy.

We were also pleased to see so many readers delving into articles written by guests of the Hopkins Press Podcast, including Koritha Mitchell on "know-your-place aggression" (African American Review), David Hollinger on "The Evangelical Capture of the Republican Party and Its Implications for Academia" (Social Research), Barrett Taylor on the proliferation of state tenure ban legislation in the U.S. (The Review of Higher Education), and Marissa J. Spear on Women, Survival and the Black Panther Party in Baltimore (Journal of Women's History).

Readers continued to recommend articles on the uses and abuse of AI technology in SAIS Review of International Affairs, Library Trends, and Hispania.

Last month's Top 20 is rounded out with articles from Reviews in American History, Perspectives in Biology and Medicine, World Politics, Human Rights Quarterly, Asian Perspective, Twentieth-Century China, Modernism/modernity, Studies in Eighteenth-Century Culture, The Journal of the History of Childhood and Youth,  portal: Libraries and the Academy, and Journal of Early Christian Studies
