.CPOGG-J: The Peer-Reviewed Journal “Critical Perspectives on Global Governance”

Global governance as a political idea has the chance to supersede other understandings of world order. In academia the concept is emerging as an important framework to imagine the global realm, and in the policy realm global governance is a political project and an emerging background condition. As both framework and project it is being (and should be) contested; therefore, by mapping the battleground on which these challenges take place, CPOGG-J hopes to demarcate the politics of global governance.

CPOGG-J is a biannual journal featuring articles focusing critically on the emerging concepts and practices of global governance. We are currently soliciting submissions and will tentatively launch the journal in early 2004. We are developing an innovative electronic platform that will facilitate the interaction between authors and reviewers and aim to cut “first response time” (accepted for review) to two days, the “primary review” to two weeks, and average “submission-to-accepted-for-publication” to six weeks.

A typical issue will comprise four or five high-quality articles (averaging 5000 words) and approximately three shorter policy statements (1000-2000 words). All published submissions must withstand a demanding peer-review process. Please submit your articles and policy statements to editor@cpogg.org. The guidelines for submission are located at www.cpogg.org.

CPOGG-J is a joint project of CPOGG (Critical Perspectives on Global Governance, www.cpogg.org) and EGAP (Tecnológico de Monterrey, www.itesm.mx/egap/). The hard copy is published by EGAP, and the electronic version is managed by CPOGG.
