Defense and Security Analysis

期刊简介：Defense & Security Analysis is an independent, interdisciplinary and international journal which is mainly concerned with the field of defense theory and analysis. Whilst endeavouring to be scholarly in both content and style, it is designed to be a forum for exchange of data, ideas and methodological approaches among the professional military, their supporting bureaucracies and academic and independent researchers involved in the analysis of defense policy. A wide range of methodological approaches to defense matters will be encompassed - quantitative, qualitative and speculative. The Editors welcome contributions to Defense & Security Analysis that fall within the following subject categories: Comparative defense policies Defense intelligence Defense management and command Defense procurement and sales Defense technology, research and development Economics of defense Formulation, simulation and prediction of defense issues Historical patterns and trends concerning defense Hypotheses, theories and critiques of defense, security and war Internal defense and low-intensity operations Medical and psychological dimensions of defense Methodological approaches to defense issues Operations research and analysis Social and legal aspects of war, defense and armed forces Terrorism, counter-terrorism and internal security Thoroughly interested in contentious debate and new interpretations, Defense & Security Analysis has two additional categories contained within the journal under which articles are published:‘Critical Comments’ and ‘Fresh Perspectives’. The former provides an opportunity for authors to challenge current opinion, defense and security policies or to respond to articles published in the journal; the latter provides a platform for those scholars who wish to express bold and daring arguments on current issues. In addition to scholarly, refereed articles, Defense & Security Analysis will include commissioned works and contributions published at the discretion of the Editors. Suggestions or proposals of possible articles and reviews are therefore welcomed. Unless the author specifies to the contrary, submitted articles will normally be evaluated, anonymously, by an independent reviewer. Defense & Security Analysis also publishes special editions, occasionally with a Guest Editor, which address a major defense or security issue. Peer Review All research and analysis papers are initially assessed for suitability by the editor, and if judged suitable, will then peer-reviewed by two independent, anonymous expert referees. Peer review is double anonymous. For special issues, articles will be reviewed by the editor and a single expert referee. Book reviews do not go through a peer-review process, but are subject to review by the journal’s reviews editor, as well as the editor-in-chief.
