The official publisher of the Marine Corps, Marine Corps University Press (MCUP) publishes scholarly articles and books on national security, military history, and international relations. We are a platinum open access press and do not charge authors any fees (for proofreading, copyediting, indexing, or any other fees related to publication) and do not charge the public for access to our books and journals. We are a full member of the Association of University Presses, and all of our publications are peer reviewed. Several of our publications appear on the Commandant of the Marine Corps Professional Reading Program list. MCUP's mission is to establish an open dialogue between scholars, policy makers, analysts, and military leaders, crossing civilian-military boundaries to advance knowledge. To that end, MCUP focuses on books and scholarly journals that provide a forum for interdisciplinary discussion of national security and international relations issues. We welcome diverse views to advance our research in our areas of interest. To contact us for potential manuscript and/or article submissions for our three journals (Expeditions, Journal of Advanced Military Studies, and Marine Corps History), email mcu_press@usmcu.edu.
