British Counterinsurgency from Malaya to Iraq2009 Impact Factor: 0.422Ranking 41/59 (International Relations); 83/112 (Political Science) 169; 2010 Thomson Reuters, 2009 Journal Citation Reports174;Free to Access! - Highlighted articles from 2008 - Find out moreThe 2009 prize was awarded to Michael Beckley, for his article 8216;Economic Development and Military Effectiveness'. His article was printed in the first issue of 2010. Over the last twenty years, the reshaping of the world politics and the development of innovative military technologies has placed a huge question mark beside the efficacy of force in contemporary statecraft. Consequently, the field of strategic studies has never been of greater significance than it is today. Since the appearance of the first issue in 1978, The Journal of Strategic Studies has taken a lead in promoting fresh thinking in the field among practitioners and academics alike.The defining feature of The Journal of Strategic Studies is its commitment to multi-disciplinary approach. The editors welcome articles that challenge our historical understanding of man's efforts to achieve political ends through the application of military and diplomatic means; articles on contemporary security and theoretical controversies of enduring value; and of course articles that explicitly combine the historical and theoretical approaches to the study of modern warfare, defence policy and modern strategy.In addition to a well-established review section, The Journal of Strategic Studies offers its diverse readership a wide range of 'special issues' and 'special sections'. Recent editions have focused on the disarmament of Germany in the inter-war years, the rise of China and counter-insurgency warfare.Award - Annual Amos Perlmutter PrizePeer ReviewAll articles in The Journal of Strategic Studies have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and review by one or more anonymous referees.

The Journal of Teaching in Social Work fills a long-standing gap in the social work literature by providing opportunities for creative and able teachers in schools, agency-based training programs, and direct practice to share with their colleagues what experience and systematic study has taught them about successful teaching. Through articles focusing on the teacher, the teaching process, and new contexts of teaching, the journal is an essential forum for teaching and learning processes and the factors affecting their quality. The journal recognizes that all social work practitioners who wish to teach (whatever their specialty) should know the philosophies of teaching and learning as well as educational methods and techniques. We believe that this journal will contribute to that knowledge. Articles that focus on the teacher, the teaching process, the learner, and the learning process, as well as new contexts of teaching are considered for publication in the journal. Special attention is given to: field work teaching; in-service training; teaching aids and technologies; policy concerns that have an impact on the educational process. The Journal of Teaching in Social Work features book reviews to help you stay abreast of the field's ever-growing literature, and will keep you at the forefront of the field with relevant qualitative and quantitative studies, as well as philosophical, historical, and empirical thoughts and works in progress from leaders in social work education and cutting-edge researchers.
