Crossroads: the ASA journal
|
Founded in 2001, Crossroads
is an interdisciplinary journal published three times a year. It has been
created and developed by the ASERI Students Association.
Crossroads aims at being a high quality journal that spreads
primarily, but not exclusively, the work of ASERI alumni.
Crossroads welcomes contributions from world-wide scholars and
executive officials with government agencies, international agencies,
non-governmental organizations and private corporations.
Crossroads is intended for the reader from the academic, governmental,
and business sector with an interest in international affairs.
A fundamental aim of Crossroads is to publish scholarly articles,
commentaries, and opinion pieces dealing with the international dimensions of
political economy, economics, political science, business, and law. In
particular Crossroads seeks to publish original, innovative, rigorous
and provocative articles dealing with the multi-faceted aspects of
international affairs.
