Security
and Defense Studies Review, an interdisciplinary journal dedicated
to promoting open and continuing dialogue about regional defense and security
issues, is seeking submissions of academic research papers for 2007
.
Papers are accepted in four forms: Original
Academic Research Paper, Essays, Research and Book Reviews, and Commentary
on articles published in previous issues of the journal. Manuscripts
submitted to Security and Defense Studies Review must
not have been published, or simultaneously submitted for publication
elsewhere.
Papers should be done in MSWord, Arial, 10 pt.
font, double-spaced, footnotes should be included using the footnote
function, do not use endnotes.
All manuscripts should be written in the author’s native language (Spanish,
Portuguese or English). The title page must state the names and full
addresses (including e-mail) of all authors. Authors should include an
abstract and a brief biographical statement in a separate file. Abstracts
for all types of contribution must give concise factual information about
the objectives of the work and the conclusions reached. A suitable length is
about 250 words. Authors are reminded that the abstracts are the only
portion of the articles that will be translated, therefore authors should
attempt to be brief yet comprehensive. Manuscripts that do not meet
these formatting requirements will be returned to the author and should be
resubmitted with the proper formatting.
Papers should be submitted via e-mail as a Word
attachment complete with any tables and illustrations, to
chdsejournal@ndu.edu for peer
review (if e-mail is not available, to the Journal Editor, Center for
Hemispheric Defense Studies, National Defense University, @ U.S. Coast Guard
Headquarters Building, 2100 Second Street, SW, Suite 4214G, Washington, DC
20593-0001, on diskette with 1 hard copy). Where requested to do so by the
Journal Editor, papers must be revised by authors within six weeks of the
request or the paper will be considered withdrawn.
Authors who
hold copyright on their work will release the rights to the Journal for the
exclusive one-time publication in the journal. Authors will retain the
copyright. The journal will publish a disclaimer indicating that the
article is being printed with the author’s permission, and that the author
must be contacted for permission to reproduce the article in whole or in
part. (“Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further
