About the Journal

The Strategic Review for Southern Africa is an internationally accredited and peer-reviewed periodical of the Department of Political Sciences at the University of Pretoria.

The Strategic Review is listed as an accredited journal in South Africa and on the IBSS (international) list of accredited journals. All submissions are peer-reviewed by at least two members of the Editorial Committee and/or external reviewers.

Articles published in the Strategic Review qualify for a subsidy from the South African Department of Higher Education and Training.

The journal has traditionally been published biannually in print, with issues during May/June and November/December of each year. This publication schedule will be maintained, but to enhance access the journal will henceforth also allow open access, through its posting on the website of the Department of Political Sciences at the University of Pretoria.

We invite manuscripts on subjects related to the wider scope of the journal.
