Abstract
This article examines the international networks of communication among journals concerned with international security studies. It uses the Web of Knowledge database on which journals cited articles in which other journals over the decade 1999—2008, and on the overall impact of each journal in the field as a whole. We discover a complex set of networks, with different central journals exerting influence both overall and within subnetworks, as well as peripheral journals linked weakly to only a few others. Some subnetworks can be distinguished by methodology or theoretical schools. Subnetworks frequently cross geographical lines, including both European and USA journals. No single journal dominates the field.
