National Focal Points
To achieve its aim, the IPES Working Paper Series is establishing a world-wide network of national focal points (NFP).

As NFP, their role is to help IPES and the Series reaching their ultimate goal to become a global platform for dialogue on policing issues and the exchange of research data, best practices and policies for the benefit and enrichment of the police profession. NFP play a key role in promoting the IPES Series within their country, identify key contributions and encourage members of their national community of experts, researchers and practitioners to submit formally manuscripts to the editors of the Working Paper Series. Once the editorial standards for the Series will be firmly established, the NFP will be commuted into local editorial boards with authority to approve manuscripts for the Series.

All submitted articles will be peer reviewed and will have to meet rigorous standards. They can represent a broad range of substantive topics, theoretical and professional orientations, empirical methods, and analytic strategies. The journal will be published on a regular basis and, as an electronic journal, the time between acceptance and publication of submissions will be considerably shorter than that of many print journals. If you have any questions regarding the journal or submission requirements, please review the relevant sections of the website or contact colin.dunnighan@ethicsinpolicing.org
