AFAOA is proud to announce the publication of the second annual edition of our academic journal, Horizons!
Now that the U.S. Army Foreign Area Officer Association (AFAOA) is up and running we are looking for contributions for the second edition of Horizons. This is a chance to offer political-military perspectives from the point of view of those who are or have served as FAO’s. It is also an opportunity to get published and share your knowledge with others who are focused on strategic and operational matters.
We are looking for original articles by FAO’s past and present on topics of interest to political-military practitioners at the operational and strategic levels. These can address a variety of issues including but not limited to the future of the FAO Functional Area, regional affairs to include past and present analysis with an emphasis on the effects on our National Security Strategy, perspectives as an attaché or security cooperation officer, historical pieces, FAO training and education, etc. The intent is for the articles to offer the in-depth analysis and evaluation that are the hallmark of FAO’s. Thus, they should go beyond what happened but also provide the context of why it matters and what the U.S. Government might do about it. There is no set length but articles of at least ten pages are ideal. Submissions should be in 12 point Times New Roman font, follow the Chicago Manual of Style format, and not include the author’s name. Footnotes should offer context or insight, with routine citations appearing in the endnotes. Include a brief biography on a seperate document. Relevant photos and other images are welcome. A team of AFAOA editors will review the articles and may offer suggestions on them prior to publication.
Submit your articles for our 2nd edition of the AFAOA Journal via email to armyfaoassociation@gmail.
Yours in FAO,
Army FAO Association
