Call for Chapters

The Twin Transition: Artificial Intelligence, Energy and the Political Economy of Change

Perspectives from Economics, Finance, Business and International Relations

Publisher: IJOPEC Publication

Publication: late December 2026. Open access under CC BY 4.0, with an ISBN and a book-level DOI via Zenodo.

IJOPEC Publication invites chapter proposals for an international, peer-reviewed edited volume on how artificial intelligence and the energy transition are reshaping economies, institutions and societies. The call is open to economics, finance, business, political science, international relations and related social sciences. Chapters may address both transitions together or either one on its own, provided the work has an economic, social, managerial or political dimension.

Chapters may be written in English or Turkish. Subject to sufficient submissions, English and Turkish chapters will be published as two separate volumes. Turkish chapters must also include an English title, an English abstract (150-250 words) and English keywords.

This is not a conference proceedings volume. All full chapters go through double-blind peer review. Chapters based on conference papers are considered only if they are substantially extended and the earlier version is declared. Researchers at all career stages, from any country, are invited to submit.

Submission has two stages.

1. Abstract. Submit an abstract of 250-300 words, in the language of the chapter, by 25 November 2026 through the form on the call page: https://www.ijopec.co.uk/call-for-chapters-twin-transition-2026/ Abstracts are reviewed as they arrive. A decision is emailed within 3 working days of receipt. If you cannot use the form, email the same information to info@ijopec.co.uk. An accepted abstract is an invitation to submit a full chapter. It does not guarantee publication.

2. Full chapter. Authors of accepted abstracts prepare the chapter with the IJOPEC Chapter Template (5,000-8,000 words) and email it to info@ijopec.co.uk by 5 December 2026, with an anonymised copy for peer review and a signed Author Declaration Form. The template and Author Guide are linked from the call page.
