Asian Security aims to be the foremost journal on all aspects of national and international security in Asia. We welcome articles on South, Central, Southeast, and East Asia or comparative articles that draw on cases from those regions. The journal covers "traditional" issues such as interstate warfare, the regional balance of power, alliances and other multilateral security institutions, national defense policies, strategic culture, civil-military relations, nuclear proliferation, conventional arms racing, arms control, and conflict-prone areas. The journal also covers "new" security issues such as the stability of democratic transitions, globalization and its backlash, ethnic conflict, insurgency and counter insurgency, nontraditional security threats, failing states, and transnational terrorism. The editors welcome submissions that are theoretically innovative and/or policy-focused on any of these topics. Policy-related articles should demonstrate engagement with literature in the field and have staying power beyond a single current event issue.
Asian Security strives to be a journal that is appreciated equally by both policymakers and scholars. Policy-related articles should demonstrate engagement with literature in the field and have staying power beyond a single current event issue.
Peer Review Policy: All submitted manuscripts are subject to initial editorial screening, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees. All peer review is double blind and submission is online via ScholarOne Manuscripts.
