Individuals interested in SFG are well informed, have a wide range of interests and come from all walks of life. But they might not be specialists in global security issues or on a specific topic listed in our “projects” under which we are seeking submissions therefore we urge writers not to send in articles with narrow topics, insider jargon, or excessive technical writing. The ideal SFG article should strike a balance. It is a reference for a debate amongst specialists, but it also engages or informs a general-interest reader. Sharp analytical thinking should be complimented by supporting data, anecdotes and wit to draw in readers. |

Devika Mistry, reviews this months book. |
