3rd CoE Research Seminar

SESSION I: Political Science Journal’s editorial strategies 

The CoE Director, prof. Stefania Panebianco, launches the debate on publication strategies: 

• Publishing strategies: tips not to perish of ‘publish of perish’
• Peer-review: the bad habit of self-quotation
• The risk to invest in new research frontiers: how to avoid a ‘reject’ when exploring new avenues of research 
• How to target articles for specific journals

Prof. Martin Bull, editor in chief of the Journal of Contemporary European Studies, identifies the 3 keywords for a successful publishing strategy: ORIGINALITY - SIGNIFICANCE - RIGUEUR

Prof. Michela Ceccorulli, editorial board of the European Review of International Studies, recommends "make a strong argument, choose carefully the journal, streamline the specificity of your paper and profile your argument"

Prof. Daniela Irrera, ECPR Chair, suggests to engage with innovative academic products such as the LOOP- the ECPR's Political Science blog: https://theloop.ecpr.eu
