Academica Press, a leading independent non-fiction publisher, is proud to call for manuscripts from dynamic scholars at all levels seeking to publish cutting edge work that challenges traditional disciplinary boundaries and provocatively revisits conventional topics. New publications will ideally be devoted to eclectic and under-explored issues and make imaginative uses of theory and method.
The Association of Former Intelligence Officers (AFIO) is beginning a new educational project entitled “When Intelligence Made a Difference.” AFIO invites anyone to identify events throughout history involving any nation or organization when the outcome was affected significantly by intelligence.
AFIO is soliciting authors and plans to publish edited submissions serially in its magazine Intelligencer, the Journal of US Intelligence Studies. The publication appears two to three times a year.
On the thirtieth anniversary of the opening of the Berlin Wall, the Nanovic Institute for European Studies at the University of Notre Dame will host an interdisciplinary conference to reconsider the European “nation”, “national identity”, and alternative modes of political mobilization in 1989, its aftermath, and its commemoration. We welcome a broad range of methodological approaches for presentations focused on Germany and Eastern Europe, including historical and social scientific, as well as perspectives informed by cultural, literary, music, art, and film studies.
