Following five years of successfully publishing themed issues, forthcoming issues of the St Antony’s International Review (STAIR) will also include a General Section. STAIR therefore invites authors to submit original research manuscripts on topics of contemporary relevance in international affairs. Submissions from political science and international relations, international law, area studies, international economics, development studies, philosophy, and international history will all be considered. Articles may take either a theoretical or a policy-oriented approach. We caution that STAIR has a broad readership and prizes accessibility of language and content.
STAIR is the only peer-reviewed journal of international affairs at the University of Oxford. Set up by graduate students of St Antony’s College in 2005, it offers a cross-disciplinary outlet for research on pressing contemporary global issues, providing a forum in which emerging scholars can publish their work alongside established academics and policymakers. Distinguished past contributors include John Baylis, Valerie Bunce, Robert Keohane, James Rosenau, and Alfred Stepan.
Please note that STAIR will continue to devote at least half of each issue to a special theme of contemporary significance. The two issues to be published in 2011 will be on “China’s Rise: An Adapting Global Structure,” and “Responding to Crises: The Past, Present, and Future of International Financial Institutions,” respectively. Authors with a particular interest in these areas should therefore refer to the themed Calls for Papers available at www.stair-journal.org.
STAIR will review manuscripts that contain previously unpublished material of up to 6,000 words (including footnotes with complete bibliographic information). Authors are asked to include a word count and an abstract of no more than 300 words. Decisions can be expected within three months. For further information on manuscript preparation, referencing, and diction, please refer to the “Notes for Contributors” available at www.stair-journal.org.
