New America - Call for Policy Essays!
New America has opened a two-month call for policy essays aimed at bringing new approaches, not even necessarily from inside the foreign/security policy field, to security challenges, broadly defined. We are hoping to get innovative, specific ideas from people who might not see themselves as insiders, or who would normally perceive that their ideas are too unusual to get an op-ed slot in a traditional publication.
