  • Introduce novel models, frameworks, or simulations (e.g., agent-based models, DSGE, crypto-financial analysis)
  • Provide actionable insights for policymakers, central banks, regulators, or industry leaders
  • Explore ethical and governance implications of AI, automation, defense systems or financial infrastructure
  • Connect empirical analysis with conceptual foresight

2. Eligible Manuscripts

We accept:

  • Working Papers
    Substantial research in progress, theoretical or empirical
  • Technical Notes & Policy Briefs
    Shorter, focused analyses on specific topics or current developments
  • Data & Model Papers

We encourage submissions from scholars, practitioners, and interdisciplinary teams. Each submission must be original, unpublished, and not under consideration elsewhere (except as preprint).
