Introduction to the Journal
International Relations Frontiers (hereinafter referred to as Frontiers) is an electronic journal initiated by the Academic Community of Scholars of State Politics. Frontiers aims to introduce groundbreaking, cutting-edge, rational, empirical and speculative research results in the field of international relations, and to sort out the newly published academic achievements of major journals in the field of international relations, so as to build a convenient window for understanding the international academic frontiers.
On the basis of the "SSCI Journal Paper Compilation Program" launched in October 2018 and the "Frontiers of International Relations" e-learning materials launched in January 2021, Frontiers was completely redesigned into a bimonthly journal in January 2022. Frontiers is released at the beginning of every even-month period, with printed on demand. Frontiers has 2 permanent columns: the "Frontier Compilation" column selects 8 articles per issue, which is screened from the more important academic research value of the new media academic platform released by the National Political Scholars in previous periods. The Newsletter covers the titles and abstracts of the latest articles published in 25 major SSCI journals in the discipline. As an unofficial publication, Frontier is for the purpose of public welfare learning and sharing, and does not involve the interests of third parties.
