Information about the SPECTRUM JOURNAL
SPECTRUM Journal of Global Studies is a journal initiated and run by the students of the Department of International Relations of the Middle East Technical University. The aim of our journal is to become one of the leading and highly reputed journals in the field of international relations. Our annual conferences have now become an important annual event with increasing participation ever year. Until our Journal gets a firm hold in the international relations community, we are encouraging the participants that come to our Conference to publish their presentations in our Journal and not to commit them to any other source. Our editorial committee will contact individual participants during the conference about the possibility of publishing their papers in the journal. We request your full support.
