As of 2014, JCR  will be expanding its publication schedule from six to eight issues
per volume. The  addition of two issues (March and September)  will enable JCR to
respond to (a) the steady increase in the number of individual manuscripts submitted
for review and (b) the continued submission of numerous special issue proposals on
a regular basis. As Editor of JCR, my overriding focus will remain on  publishing
high-quality work  that significantly advances basic research on a broad range of
topics related to the study of conflict and its resolution. As a result, the acceptance
rate for manuscripts submitted  to JCR  will remain steady in line with historical
averages of 9 to 10 percent, while I will also continue to look to publish one or two
special issues per year.
