Press Release - Hearts and Minds? 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 events of 9/11 and beyond have compelled stakeholders to look at transport security as much more than merely another element of the global networks that move people and goods. An activity that was previously viewed as a routine component of modern transportation is now seen as both a vital necesity and a national priority. Across a wide spectrum, transportation security is playing a leading role in determining how both the present and future will look. Remarkably, no single clearinghouse of research and analysis on this important topic has arisen. Transportation security lies at the core of many important areas of study, including supply chain and logistics: information technology: public policy: international business: political science: engineering: transportation: economics: and counterterrorism, among others. This journal will be the first to take a global, apolitical, and in-depth multidisciplinary look at the field. The mission of the journal will be to disseminate new research, thought, and analysis for teachers, researchers, policy makers and practitioners around the world who view transportation security as a critical element in the post 9/11 world.Officially cited as: J Transp Secur

Journal of the Asia Pacific Economy (JAPE) is concerned primarily with the developing economies within Pacific Asia and South Asia. It aims to promote greater understanding of the complex factors that have influenced and continue to shape the transformation of the diverse economies in this region. Studies on developed countries will be considered only if they have implications for the developing countries in the region. JAPE's editorial policy is to maintain a sound balance between theoretical and empirical studies. JAPE publishes research papers in economics but also welcomes papers that deal with economic issues using a multi-disciplinary approach. Submissions may range from overviews spanning the region or parts of it, to papers with a detailed focus on particular issues facing individual countries. JAPE has a broad readership, which makes papers concerned with narrow and detailed technical matters inappropriate for inclusion. In addition, papers should not be simply one more application of a formal model or statistical technique used elsewhere. Authors should note that discussion of results must make sense intuitively, and relate to the institutional and historical context of the geographic area analyzed. We particularly ask authors to spell out the practical policy implications of their findings for governments and business. In addition to articles, JAPE publishes short notes, comments and book reviews. From time to time, it also publishes special issues on matters of great importance to economies in the Asia Pacific area. Peer Review Statement All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and 'anonymous double-blind' refereeing by two referees.

Mediterranean Politics is the only refereed academic journal to focus on the politics, international relations and political economy of the entire Mediterranean area - 'Mediterranean' here being understood to refer to all those countries whose borders are defined partially or wholly by the Mediterranean Sea. This focus involves consideration not only of the region itself, but also the significance of developments there for other parts of the world. The journal analyses the central issues that concern Mediterranean countries and assesses both local and international responses to them. While its prime concern is with political developments, the focus of Mediterranean Politics extends to all the factors and dimensions affecting political life. These include social movements and issues, regional and domestic conflicts, the political economy of the Mediterranean, migration, political reform processes and issues of cultural identity. The journal does not accept articles on historical subjects that lack direct contemporary linkage, or general economics articles with a Mediterranean context. Since its inception, the journal has given extensive attention to the expanding relationships between Europe and its southern neighbours, including the Euro-Mediterranean Partnership, European Neighbourhood Policy and Union for the Mediterranean. Equally, we welcome contributions on interactions between the Mediterranean and other parts of the world. The articles are based on original research, some focused on individual states, others on relationships between them, the role of multilateral organizations in the area or issues that are relevant to the area or sub-areas as a whole or to several countries studied comparatively. Besides research articles, the journal publishes a regular Profile section devoted to briefer analysis of recent events or developments, and a substantial book review section, usually containing a review article. While some issues are general ones with varied contents, others are special collections.
