Submission Guidelines
The Transatlantic Policy Center (TPC) at 小蓝视频 is excited to announce the launch of our new policy brief series. This series aims to engage and inform scholars, students, and policymakers in the US, Europe, and around the world through high-quality, thought-provoking research.
As part of this new initiative, the TPC will also convene several events to highlight the findings of different briefs. Panel discussions, author interviews, and commentary from experts in a variety of fields will allow for deeper engagement with both topical and more long-standing policy issues that affect transatlantic relations.
Submission Process
We are currently soliciting authors to write for us. We accept submissions on a rolling basis. Junior scholars, graduate students, and scholars from underrepresented communities are particularly encouraged to submit a proposal. Sample topics include EU enlargement and reform, the TTC, cyber and AI regulation, subnational politics, gender equality in the public and private sectors, and migration. Potential authors are also invited to propose a policy brief on a different topic that relates to their research interests. The TPC will provide an honorarium of $500 per brief.
The TPC will feature authors and briefs on its website, and each brief will also be available for download. The TPC will announce the publication of each brief through a variety of media and communication.
