The Polemos journal and the International Studies journal have merged to create a new journal under the title Polemos – International Studies.

The new journal simultaneously retains the identity of its predecessors and strives to build a new one and is conceived as an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary scientific journal focused on researching fundamental issues of war, peace, the military, and international relations. The Polemos – International Studies journal claims rights to previous issues and the archive of its predecessors.

The journal Polemos was published from 2001 to 2024 as an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary academic journal covering different aspects of security studies, the study of war and of the military in its sociological, psychological, anthropological, law, philosophical, economical, demographic, medical, political science and military history perspectives. The journal published works by Croatian and foreign authors on all phenomena related to the war, military organization and institutions, civil-military relations, strategic problems, arms control, peace management, conflict resolution, international humanitarian law, international relations, international and regional defense mechanisms, and history of war.
