Announcement

We're happy to announce the transition of the USAF Journal of the Americas into our new journal: Contemporary International Security Affairs—The Forum for Global Security Analysis. Starting with its inaugural Spring 2025 edition, CISA will be comprised of the merger of our current USAF Journal of the Americas (JotA - USAF Journal of the Americas) and Journal of Indo-Pacific Affairs (JIPA - https://www.airuniversity.af.edu/JIPA/); and will build on the legacies of the Journal of European, Middle Eastern, & African Affairs, Air and Space Power Journal-Africa and Francophonie, and Air and Space Power Journal-Arabic. CISA will provide a truly global perspective on defense strategy, great-power competition, and emerging threats.
