Achieving international peace and security is the major goal of the United Nations and of many other global, regional and national government and non-governmental organizations. Peace and Security Studies refers to two totally different study programmes in the social sciences that are influenced by different schools, paradigms, word views and mindsets of the analysts. Peace and Security Studies (ESDP-PSS) is a peer-reviewed book subseries that focuses on different international, national and humanitarian peace and security issues, both theoretical analyses and original empirical analyses from different disciplines including history, political science, economics, sociology, psychology, and anthropology. This subseries addresses environmental, security, development and peace issues and six dyadic conceptual relationships among them: i) peace and security; ii) peace and environment; iii) development and security; iv) environment and development; v) development and security; and vi) environment and security.
Peace and Security Studies (ESDP-PSS) welcomes book proposals from scholars from the social sciences who are working on these four key themes and on conceptual, empirical and theoretical approaches to peace and security studies. This subseries includes original monographs, edited books (e.g. workshop or research reports), and outstanding academic qualification studies (PhD and MA/MSc theses). A key goal of this subseries is to give scholars from the global South more voice and visibility in the peer-reviewed literature.
All books in this subseries must be original and between 30,000 and 70,000 words. They are peer-reviewed and published as printed books in softcover and as Ebooks.
