The war between Iran, Israel, and the United States is no longer a distant geopolitical abstraction.<\/p>\n
It is the defining conflict of this moment.<\/p>\n
What began as decades of shadow confrontation has now erupted into direct war, marked by large-scale strikes, leadership targeting, and regional escalation. The opening phase alone saw hundreds of coordinated attacks on Iranian military and nuclear infrastructure, followed by missile retaliation across the region and the destabilization of critical global chokepoints such as the Strait of Hormuz. Energy markets have already been shaken, with infrastructure strikes triggering global price volatility.<\/p>\n
This is not just another Middle Eastern crisis.
\nIt is a test of how wars are fought, justified, and sustained in the 21st century.<\/p>\n
We are seeking bold, opinionated, and analytically rigorous contributions<\/b> that go beyond surface-level commentary.<\/p>\n
We are not interested in neutrality for its own sake.<\/p>\n
We are looking for arguments.<\/p>\n
Submissions should challenge assumptions, question prevailing narratives, and engage seriously with the geopolitical, economic, and strategic implications of the war.<\/p>\n
We particularly welcome pieces that connect this war to larger structural trends shaping the global order.<\/p>\n
This war is not just about territory, deterrence, or regime survival.<\/p>\n
It reflects a deeper shift.<\/p>\n
A move away from the post-Cold War assumption that conflicts can be managed through diplomacy and limited force. A return to a world where power is exercised more directly, where economic systems are weaponized, and where escalation is harder to contain.<\/p>\n
The question is no longer how this war ends. The question is what kind of world it leaves behind.<\/p>\n
We invite scholars, analysts, journalists, and independent thinkers to contribute to this conversation.<\/p>\n
