International Studies Quarterly (ISQ)

Isqcover

International Studies Quarterly, the official journal of the International Studies Association, seeks to acquaint a broad audience of readers with the best work being done in the variety of intellectual traditions included under the rubric of international studies. Therefore, the editors welcome all submissions addressing this community's theoretical, empirical, and normative concerns.  First preference will continue to be given to articles that address and contribute to important disciplinary and interdisciplinary questions and controversies.  As part of an ongoing movement toward concerns over community access to data employed in empirical enquiries, and the related possibilities for replication and cumulation, the editors will require authors whose articles are accepted for publication to ensure that their data are fully accessible.  Authors of quantitative empirical articles must make their data available for replication purposes. A statement of how that is done must appear in the first footnote of the article. Required material would include all data, specialized computer programs, program recodes, and an explanatory file describing what is included and how to reproduce the published results. ISQ is published four times a year for the International Studies Association by Blackwell Publishing.

Publication: 4 times yearly.

International Studies Review (ISR)

Isrcover

The International Studies Review provides a window on current trends and research in the field of international studies. In it, scholars, educators, and policymakers can find pertinent information about new books in international studies as well as analytic reviews of recent trends and controversies in scholarship around the world. Published four time a year, the Review will help: (a) scholars engage in the kind of dialogue and debate that will shape the field of international studies in the future; (b) graduate and undergraduate students understand the major issues in international studies and identify promising opportunities for research; and (c) educators keep up with new ideas and research. 

Contents

The Review contains the following distinct sections. 

Reflection, Evaluation, and Integration: The heart of each issue is made up of two or three extended essays that synthesize scholarship, clarify debates, pose new perspectives on existing research, identify new directions in the field, or provide insight into scholarship in various parts of the world.

Reviews of Books: As many as 20 short pieces review single books or sets of two or three related books that have been published within the past year.

The Forum: A goal of the Review is to stimulate lively dialogue and debate about the nature of and future directions for international studies. The Forum provides an outlet for debates over concepts, theories, current research, or even about reviews that have been published in the International Studies Review itself.

Focus

The focus of the International Studies Review is on books and research dealing with international institutions and the foreign policies, international interactions, and international relationships of such political actors as national governments, subnational groups, and international governmental and nongovernmental organizations.

At the same time, the Review is committed to engaging the entire international studies community in a creative dialogue. Over time the essay and book reviews will give attention to such diverse topics as security studies, international regime theory, international trade and finance, comparative studies, development studies, feminist international theory, peace studies, foreign policy analysis, international organizations, international communication, intelligence studies, international law, environmental studies, as well as various types of research methodologies.

For Additional Information

The International Studies Review is a publication of the International Studies Association. It is published by Blackwell Publishers and edited through the University of Connecticut. Authors are encouraged to check the guidelines for doing essay reviews before submitting such reviews.  Those interested in becoming part of the journals international panel of book reviewers should send an email indicating their interest along with a current CV.  Manuscripts and questions should be directed to:

International Studies Perspectives (ISP)

Ispcover

International Studies Perspectives (ISP) publishes articles that bridge the interests of researchers, teachers, and practitioners working within any and all subfields of international studies. The journal is devoted to four types of contribution:

  • Policy research and commentary: Articles in this category are addressed to current or recent policy debates, highlight the degree to which these debates are (or should be) informed by existing scholarly literature and contemporary research, and are directed to an audience consisting of both academics and practitioners.
  • Pedagogical analyses:  Colleges and universities around the world have placed renewed emphasis on innovative teaching methods in the field of international studies, and ISP provides an outlet for high quality pedagogical analysis.  Active learning approaches, curriculum development, multimedia methods, and other topics have been discussed in the journal's pages.
  • Visions of the discipline:  These contributions offer insights into current trends in international studies, including developments in fields other than political science, and controversial debates in the discipline.  Articles in this category also seek to connect such trends and debates to developments in policy research and pedagogy.
  • Pieces of interest to the international studies profession:  Articles on the profession deal with such topics as publishing in international studies, the job market, and professional development.  This section also includes sometimes humorous (but always insightful) "pieces on our craft."

Editorial Policies:  Manuscripts accepted for review will be examined by two or more active scholars qualified to provide editorial input to ISP, in addition to review by at least one member of the editorial team.  The editors are responsible for all final decisions on the publication of manuscripts.

Publication : 4 times yearly.

Original manuscripts that fall within the mission of ISP outlined above should be sent to:

Foreign Policy Analysis (FPA)

Fpacover

Foreign Policy Analysis provides a peer-reviewed outlet for the highest quality academic research into the processes, outcomes and theories of foreign policy. Reflecting the diverse, comparative and multidisciplinary nature of the field, Foreign Policy Analysis provides an open forum for research publication that enhances the communication of concepts and ideas across theoretic, methodological, geographical and disciplinary boundaries. By emphasizing accessibility of content for scholars of all perspectives and approaches in the editorial and review process, Foreign Policy Analysis serves as a source for efforts at theoretical and methodological integration and deepening the conceptual debates throughout this rich and complex research tradition.

Foreign policy analysis, as a field of study, is characterized by its actor-specific focus. The underlying, often implicit argument is that the source of international politics and change in international politics is human beings, acting individually or in groups. In the simplest terms, foreign policy analysis is the study of process, effects, causes or outputs of foreign policy decision-making in either a comparative or case-specific manner.

Foreign Policy Analysis is distributed to all members of the International Studies Association, as well as several thousand institutional and library subscribers. As a result, the review guidelines are intended not only to insure the highest quality in the research published, but also to provide value to such a large and diverse audience. Authors are asked to insure that their articles are written to be accessible to all researchers in international studies. Submissions are open to all and all submissions will be evaluated on the quality of their content with the additional consideration of broad accessibility.

International Political Sociology (IPS)

Ipscover

International Political Sociology (IPS), responds to the need for more productive collaboration among political sociologists, international relations specialists and sociopolitical theorists. It is especially concerned with challenges arising from contemporary transformations of social, political, and global orders given the statist forms of traditional sociologies and the marginalization of social processes in many approaches to international relations. IPS is committed to theoretical innovation, new modes of empirical research and the geographical and cultural diversification of research beyond the usual circuits of European and North-American scholarship.
