Global Politics Magazine
is not a magazine in the conventional sense, designed to be read
passively. It is a dynamic project, and all readers are
encouraged to become involved.
What can I do?
1) We need people to contribute to
and edit the Fresh
Ideas section. It's a collection of punchy summaries
of the biggest, most exciting new ideas out there:
we want to extract the best new thinking and collect it
on this site. Could you outline the big idea of one or more
books or articles you've read for each issue of the magazine, or
edit the contributions of others? We want
punchy, fresh, exciting - any topic as long as it's
internationalist and forward thinking. If this is for you,
please
email
global
[at] global-politics.co.uk. We'll be very happy to discuss.
2) We want more
bloggers. We are inviting writers to join a pool
who can make regular or occasional contributions. We would also
like someone to join us to oversee the editing and coordination
of the Blog section. Get in touch at
globalpolitics [at] global-politics.co.uk
Other than that, there's
plenty of other ways to be involved:

Writing for
the magazine
Global Politics Magazine provides a space for writers
to make a fuller contribution to political debate than they may
otherwise be able to do. Many forums and comment pages allow
readers to express opinions, but few give the opportunity to put
across a complete argument in the form of a published article.
Although hosted in the UK, the magazine is available to readers around
the globe.
As well as the main articles, we
welcome contributions and suggestions for the additional
sections:
-
The
International Perspective section is reserved for
non-UK writers to give a view on international affairs from their
home country.
-
The Insider is an opportunity to swap experiences of working in
the international sphere. If you work in this area, we would
like to hear from you.
-
Think on This looks at
an article published elsewhere which is particular
thought-provoking or controversial.
-
Fresh Ideas exciting new ideas from the world of
foreign affairs
-

I want to
write for Global Politics Magazine - what next?
We
welcome all articles relating to contemporary international affairs,
but we particularly encourage those
which seek to highlight and introduce new ideas and fresh
thinking in political debate. Please read
the Magazine's statement of purpose
for further guidance.
If you
would like to
contribute, please check the
editorial policy
and email a brief outline of the proposed
article/debate topic/international perspective/insider's view/blog/Fresh
Idea to us at
globalpolitics [at] global-politics.co.uk
Don't
worry about anything too in-depth. We will provide further guidance on the requirements and discuss any
queries regarding the subject.
Please note
that we may not publish an article if it
lacks a clear argument or is otherwise felt to be of a poor
standard. In these situations feedback and guidance can be given
if required. If English is not your first language then extra
assistance can be given to ensure that language is not a barrier
- please get in touch with any questions.
