Academic publisher SAGE Publishing has announced that Research & Politics, a peer reviewed, gold open-access journal, will be supported for two years through the prestigious Carnegie grant, enabling the journal to continue to waive open access Article Processing Charges (APCs).
Georgetown University's Institute for the Study of Diplomacy (ISD), along with the Mortara Center for International Studies, received a nearly $840,000 grant from Carnegie Corporation of New York under its 'Bridging the Gap' initiative. This initiative aims to individually and collectively improve the transfer of research and expertise between higher education and the policy world. Research & Politics was selected to be a recipient of part of the fund to further enhance the journal's contribution to improve interdisciplinary research and practice on global policy issues.
The grant comes into place for the journal immediately, following the end of the charges currently covered by SAGE. The award amount wholly subsidizes the APC charges for authors for two years, through to the end of 2017.
