Occasional Papers
Quick, clear accounts of an emerging issue, its context and its stakes.


An issue brief explains an emerging development quickly and clearly: what has happened, the background needed to understand it, the stakes for national resilience and the questions it raises. Issue briefs are timely by design and help readers make sense of events while they are still unfolding.

Sample layout
A specimen with the cover, publication details, structure and page layout, with guidance for authors in each section. It is a template only and does not report research.
Papers will be listed here as they are cleared by the editorial board. If you are working on a question that suits this form, send us a short proposal: a working title, a few lines on the argument and the evidence you will use.
