Posted in the Newsletter of the Concerned Philosophers for Peace Vol. 26 (Spring – Summer 2006)
The Journal for the Study of Peace and Conflict, the journal of the Wisconsin Institute for Peace and Conflict Studies (ISSN 1095-1962) publishes a variety of scholarly articles, essays, and poetry on topics such as war, peace, global cooperation, domestic violence, and interpersonal conflict resolution; including questions of military and political security, the global economy, and global environmental issues. We wish to promote discussion of both strategic and ethical questions surrounding issues of war, peace, the environment, and justice.
The Wisconsin Institute is committed to a balanced review of diverse perspectives. Submissions are welcome from all disciplines. Our intended audience includes scholars from a wide range of interests within the university community and educated members of the larger public. The format allows the publication of original previously-unpublished works of sufficient length to give authors the opportunity to discuss a particular topic in depth. Other forms of creative writing are invited. Contributors should avoid submissions accessible only to specialists in their field.
The Journal for the Study of Peace and Conflict may also include book reviews. Persons interested in reviewing should contact the editor.
Submissions should be a maximum of 25 pages, double-spaced. All manuscripts should be composed in MS Word using Bookman Old Style, 10-point font. Citations are to be in the body of the text, e.g., (Jones, p.35), with a full bibliography at the end of the article. Do not use footnotes. Content notes should be placed at the end of the manuscript. Include separately a brief bio statement with a note that includes your institution, your email and mailing addresses, and work phone number.
Submissions for 2006-2007 issue are due June 16, 2006. Five copies of each submission should be sent to the Wisconsin Institute for Peace and Conflict Studies, UWSP, LRC, 900 Reserve Street, Stevens Point, WI 54481. In addition, supply the manuscript electronically to wiinst@uwsp.edu.
