Publications
The conjunction of systemic fundamental research and knowledge transfer is reflected in our publication strategy: peer-reviewed articles in international journals, edited volumes, monographs, as well as the PRIF Studies and Working Papers series target a scientific audience.
With the series PRIF Report, PRIF Spotlight, PRIF Blog and the Peace Report, published since 1987, our practice-oriented analyses of political issues, backgrounds and developments reach policy makers, society and the media.
PRIF Reports and PRIF Spotlights are subject to a systematic internal quality assessment by our research council. They are available online, free of charge. We support public access to our scientific publications online through Open Access.
