Aims & Scope✦ Compiled from public sources

Critical Military Studies provides a platform for interdisciplinary debate on the operation of military power, encouraging the interrogation and destabilization of categories related to the military. It welcomes submissions on the contributions of critical analysis to military studies, comparative accounts of militaries, authoritarianism, militarism and militarization, race, empire and postcolonialism in military studies, gendered and queer analyses, disability and embodiment, legacies of military occupation, and the legitimization of military actions and institutions.
