What we are looking for:
- A 900 - 2000 word analytical piece that takes the form of an article, book review, or interview with a career professional. This is not the place for academic research, opinion pieces, or other styles of writing.
- A topic of your choice, based on recent/current events of geopolitical significance that falls under the umbrella of national security.
