Submissions:

We invite potential contributors of original, substantive articles pertaining to the journal's aims (3,000-5,000 words) to contact the editors with a 1-2 page memo. Include the working title of your proposed article and a description of its content. (Please do NOT submit full papers without prior consultation with the editors.) Articles may be essays or research pieces. The former generally summarize extant research, practice, or policy in a particular field or specialty in common-sense English, highlighting the main problems, findings, policy issues, and conclusions for a global audience that includes national and international policy and decisionmakers, NGO personnel, scholars and scientists, and members of the military, peacekeeping, religious, business, advocacy, and other communities. We discourage the use of copious notes. Research articles should follow usual academic practices. Please read the journal's Aims and Scope before contacting the editors with your proposal. EPSJ also web-publishes selected letters or comments (< 800 words) on articles and materials appearing in the journal and on this web site. Please send these to the journal's editors.
