How we research, review and correct our work

Evidence and sourcing

Every factual claim must be attributable to a documented source, a named interview, or a dataset we can describe. Where evidence is partial or contested, the text says so explicitly rather than resolving uncertainty for the reader.

Review process

Analysis is reviewed by an editor and, where technical, by a subject specialist. Research papers and strategic assessments undergo external review before publication.

Independence and disclosure

We accept no funding conditioned on editorial outcomes. Authors disclose affiliations and interests relevant to their subject, and those disclosures are published with the work.

Corrections

Errors of fact are corrected promptly and noted at the foot of the article with the date of amendment. Substantive corrections are never made silently.

Submission guidelines

Analysis runs 1,200–2,000 words; issue briefs 3,000–5,000. Submit a one-paragraph summary, your argument, and your evidentiary basis to [email protected]. We respond within ten working days.
