About the Illini Journal of International Security 

The Illini Journal of International Security (IJOIS) is a peer-reviewed undergraduate 
academic journal that was founded in September 2015 by undergraduate students at the 
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. IJOIS is published biannually through the 
University of Illinois Library with the support of the Program of Arms Control & Domestic and 
International Security (ACDIS) and consists of exceptional undergraduate and graduate papers 
on topics related to international security or foreign affairs. IJOIS utilizes a cross- disciplinary 
approach and accepts papers from students studying the social sciences, STEM fields, business 
and the humanities that analyze international security issues from innovative perspectives. While 
IJOIS is run by students at UIUC, the Journal accepts submissions from students at all University 
of Illinois campuses (Urbana-Champaign, Chicago, and Springfield).
