The Journal was first published by the Strategic Research Institute (SRI) of Turkish War Colleges in 2005 and has continued its publication life uninterrupted since then. Its publishing rights have been transferred to the Atatürk Institute of Strategic Studies (AISS) established under Turkish National Defence University in 2016.
