Interstate
Interstate is the student-run journal of the Department of International Politics at Aberystwyth, established in the 1960s. It is a published and citable journal of academic work that looks great on your CV, it also provides good writing practice for those working towards dissertations or thinking about further academic study.
Interstate alternates between the themes of strategy and international relations in its issues. We aim to publish the next issue in January 2025 on the topic of security and titled ‘Modern Strategy’. Contributions should be linked to the title of the issue, for example, reflecting on the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, MENA, West and Central Africa and the South China Sea. Other strategy, intelligence or warfare-related articles will be considered by the editorial board.
We are looking for articles from 2nd and 3rd year Undergraduates as well as Masters students. Articles should be between 2,000 and 4,000 words and come with footnote citations. Work can be submitted in English or Welsh.
If you are interested in getting published please email a brief description of the concept of your article to the Executive Editor John Hinchliff jeh79@aber.ac.uk. Those who pass the selection process will contacted individually.
