The articles in this Journal offer intellectual contributions and exemplify our focus on broadening intellectual resources, understanding, development and exchange of ideas among global research professionals. In addition, my sincere gratitude goes to all of the Executive Editorial Board Members, Reviewers‘ Task Panel, Contributing Editors and the Senior Advisory Board for their efforts to make JGIP a great academic Journal. They work hard to review the many papers submitted and provide a level of consistency for JGIP reviews. JGIP seeks international input in all aspects of the Journal, including content, authorship of papers, readership, paper reviews, and Executive Editorial Board Membership. We continue to look for individuals interested in becoming a reviewer for Intellectbase conference proceedings and Journals. Potential reviewers should send a self-nomination to the editor at [email protected]. Reviewers may also be asked to be part of the Executive Editorial Board (EEB) after they have established a positive record of reviewing articles in their discipline. JGIP provides intellectual analysis on global intelligence and administrative policies. Typical papers present arguments, design and illustrations in the following themes: transparencies, immigration, social inequality, local and national security, threat-related concerns as well as environmental protection propositions. The goal of the Journal of Global Intelligence & Policy (JGIP) is to provide relevant data to the business, government, and academic communities by helping to promote the interdisciplinary exchange of ideas on a global scale. Challenges on Vulnerabilities such as effective Knowledge Sharing and Information Transfer (KSIT) and successful Global Policy Implementation (GPI) are recognized. The Journal uncovers conceptual frameworks, empirical data, and qualitative and quantitative methodologies, including triangulation approaches. Data-collection, data-merging, data assessment and cross-examination of both national and international practices are encouraged.
