Studies in Conflict and Terrorism was founded in 1992 by the merger of two separate terrorism publications Terrorism: An International Journal the volume numbering of which it continued (from volume 15) and Conflict (ISSN: 0149-5941)[1] both journals were published by New York based publisher Crane Russak. Studies in Conflict & Terrorism is published monthly for a total of 12 issues per year. [2]

The journal is one of the two leading journals on terrorism, the other being Terrorism and Political Violence. Both journals are published by Routledge part of the Taylor and Francis group, which is in turn part of the Informa Group which has helped to fund the Centre for the Study of Terrorism and Political Violence at St Andrews University. The St Andrews Centre is well represented on the editorial board and the rest of the board is dominated by terrorologists fully signed up to supporting Western power.
