International Relations (Uluslararası İlişkiler), privately owned and independently published by the International Relations Council of Turkey (IRCT), is a double-blind peer-reviewed international and multidisciplinary scholarly journal open to articles on international relations, political history, international law, security studies, diplomacy, and international political economy. Launched in 2004, International Relations aims to develop academic perspectives in International Relations and related fields. Its interest spans, but is not confined to, contributing to the global International Relations literature through engaging theoretically and/or empirically grounded original works.
International Relations is open to all methodological approaches and welcomes submissions that add new theoretical and empirical insights into scholarly debates in the field. It also publishes book reviews.
Submissions are initially reviewed by the editorial team and then sent for double-blind peer review. Please read the instructions for authors for information on how to submit your article.
International Relations converted to a full Open Access journal in 2019 on its 15th anniversary, and there are no submission fees, publication fees, or page charges for the journal.
