About the Journal

The Journal of Military Strategy (JMS) is a peer-reviewed, international quarterly publication dedicated to the advanced study of strategic theory, defense policy, and the operational art of warfare.

Aims & Scope:
JMS provides a premier platform for rigorous academic and professional discourse on the complex challenges of modern and future conflict. We seek to bridge the gap between theoretical innovation and practical application by publishing high-quality, original research that examines the enduring and evolving nature of military power. The journal welcomes interdisciplinary approaches and encourages submissions from scholars, military professionals, and policy analysts.

Our scope encompasses, but is not limited to:

• Strategic Theory and Doctrine: Historical and contemporary strategic thought, doctrinal development, and grand strategy.

• Operational Art and Campaign Analysis: The planning and execution of major operations, joint and combined warfare, and lessons from historical and contemporary campaigns.

• Security Studies: Deterrence theory, alliance politics, arms control, and regional security architectures (Indo-Pacific, NATO, etc.).

• The Changing Character of Warfare: Hybrid warfare, gray-zone conflicts, cyber strategy, information operations, and the impact of emerging technologies (AI, autonomy, hypersonics, space).

• Defense Management: Defense economics, acquisition, logistics, military innovation, and professional military education.

JMS is essential reading for academics, government officials, senior military commanders, and defense industry leaders committed to a deeper understanding of military strategy.
