About The Journal:
Inquiry & Insight is
a peer reviewed and student run journal that addresses contemporary issues
within the field of political science. We are excited to give graduate and
undergraduate students the opportunity to publish their work in the fourth
edition of our academic journal. In order to give voice to new and diverse
ideas, we have broadened our focus internationally and have invited students
from across Canada, the United States, Europe and Asia to submit their work.
The aim of this publication is to further theoretical, empirical and
normative understandings of political science by addressing a broad range of
issues. We encourage submissions in the areas of International Relations,
Peace and Conflict Studies, Political Theory, Canadian Politics, Public
Policy, Political Economy, International Development and Environmental
Politics. To maintain academic integrity, papers will be selected based on
originality, conceptualization, operationalization, and methodology.
This
year’s publication comes at an exciting time in international affairs, as
states struggle with security, legitimacy, transitions to democracy, and
environmental issues- just to name a few. As such, we expect the discussions
presented in Inquiry & Insight to reflect this provocative atmosphere. We
look forward to reviewing all submissions, and are pleased to engage in
a dialogue that will frame current issues while establishing a new perspective.
