Call for Papers
S+F invites authors to submit suitable papers for publication
S+F is the leading German journal for peace research
and security policy. S+F aims to serve as a forum of
analysis, insider reports and opinion pieces for research and politics
linking civil society and the armed forces. Decisions on publication are
made on the basis of the contribution of a text to national and international
discussions on peace and security issues, considering scientific aspects
of arms control to questions of nation-building in post-war societies.
Every issue of S+F is focused on a particular theme.
In addition, texts addressing general aspects of peace and security research
are also published. Authors can choose to have the text evaluated by the
publisher and editorial team or by an external evaluation process (double-blind
peer-review), the latter is more time intensive (for the evaluation process,
revision, etc.). S+F intends to increase the number of
externally evaluated contributions but will continue to publish texts
which have been assessed by the editorial team and the publisher responsible
for the issue. The “deadlines” listed below are for contributions
for a specific theme. Contributions on other topics can be made
at any time.
