International Journal of Development
Issues
The International Journal of Development Issues is a
peer-reviewed journal. The main objective of the IJDI is to
publish research output on all important development issues
with a focus on development dynamism and a bias for
inter-disciplinary approach. In particular, Economics,
Politics, History, Sociology, Anthropology, Ecology, Social
Work, Commerce, Information Technology, Law and allied
disciplines would receive special priorities. The IJDI
welcomes publication of papers that are empirically
oriented, but with solid methodological foundation based on
realism and pragmatism rather than on idealism. It
encourages critical analysis of development issues not only
from the heterodox viewpoints (such as new- and post-structuralist,
neo- and new-institutionalist, etc.), but also from the
neo-liberalist viewpoint in orthodox tradition. The IJDI is
intended for being an international forum of exchanging
viewpoints of a wide variety of perspectives and
disciplines. It is expected that the IJDI would be a genuine
guideline for socially appropriate policy prescriptions made
by the development practitioners and policy makers in both
developing and emerging market economies of Africa, Asia,
Eastern Europe and Latin America.

Structural Change and Economic
Dynamics
Structural Change and Economic Dynamics publishes articles
about theoretical, applied and methodological aspects of
structural change in economic systems. An important aim is
to facilitate communication among research institutes and
individual researchers who are actively engaged in the study
of structural change. The journal publishes work about
continuity and structural breaks in economic, technological,
behavioural and institutional patterns. Articles might
examine the effects of the incorporation of new
technologies, the changing pattern in income-distribution
and employment, the interdependence between environmental
and economic change, and so on. SCED encourages articles
about statistical and econometric techniques suitable for
this type of research. The journal also publishes pure
theoretical research on the structural dynamics of economic
systems, in particular in the field of multisectoral
analysis, the application of difference and differential
equations and of the theory of bifurcations and chaos to
analyse economic dynamics.

Cahiers d'Economie Politique
The Cahiers d'économie politique is a refereed journal,
bi-annual, publishing in french and in english, and open to
all the streams and theoretical orientations of economics.
Since its first publication in 1974, the journal has
endeavoured to show that the study of earlier authors and
the contemporary economic analysis may be mutually
beneficial to further development of the discipline. The
objective of the journal is therefore to be a forum for
theoretical discussions that fully take into account the
historical dimension of economic discipline. The website,
which contains an english version, is available at the
following address:
http://www.cahiersdecopo.fr/ ;
http://www.cahiersdecopo.fr/Home
page 1 en.html for the english version.
The issues are avalaible on Cairn (http://www.cairn.info/revue-cahiers-d-economie-politique.htm)
and will be available on Ebsco at the end of the year.

Economics and Philosophy
The disciplines of economics and philosophy each possess
their own special analytical methods, whose combination is
powerful and fruitful. Each discipline can be enriched by
the other. Economics and Philosophy aims to promote their
mutual enrichment by publishing articles and book reviews in
all areas linking these subjects. Topics include the
methodology and epistemology of economics, the foundations
of decision theory and game theory, the nature of rational
choice in general, historical work on economics with a
philosophical purpose, ethical issues in economics, the use
of economic techniques in ethical theory, and many other
subjects.

History of Economic Ideas
History of Economic Ideas is a new international series of
Quaderni di storia dell'economia politica, a journal founded
in 1983 to promote collaboration between scholars who share
an historical approach to the major issues, the various
“revolutions” which have left their mark on economics and
the spread of economic ideas beyond the narrow circle of
specialists. History of Economic Ideas rejects the dichotomy
between “analysis” and "culture": both aspects are of equal
importance for a wider understanding of the subject. In a
period such as our own, where paradigms which once seemed
unshakeable are now being challenged, a multidisciplinary
analysis of the historical development of economics might
contribute to shedding light on the issues at the root of
current debate. Besides essays and critical surveys, the
journal will include archive material and reviews of new
books on history of economics.

Journal of Philosophical Economics
This Journal of Philosophical Economics is devoted to ideas
that question the methodological premises of economics as
science. Scholars from all fields of scientific concern
about inquiry of economical phenomena, but especially from
disciplines such as political economy, sociology, political
science, statistics and mathematics, philosophy of science,
and history, are invited to submit their contributions. The
Editorial Board takes a liberal stance in leaving a fair
chance for contributors to provide the readers with a
systematic, honest, and thoroughly researched account of an
idea deemed fundamental for the advancement of the method of
economic inquiry. The Editorial Board refrains from
suggesting possible topics or advising contributors on a
certain conduct of their investigation. It lies at the core
of this endeavour to have this Journal's audience challenged
from innumerable sparkles of minds provided that they remain
faithful to genuine scientific effort. Multum in parvo is
more than anything else sought after in due respect for the
irremediable passage of time. The Journal is divided into
three parts: “Articles”, “Reviews” and “Comments”, which
equally concur in developing a process of cumulative
knowledge. Understanding causation relative to evolutions of
the humankind's economic progress is meant to represent the
philosophical foundation of economics.

Research in the History of Economic
Thought and Methodology
Research in the History of Economic Thought and Methodology
is an annual research series which presents materials in two
fields, both broadly considered: the history of economic
thought; the methodology of economics. The annual A-volume
contains peer-reviewed articles comparable to other academic
journals in the history of economics, except that long
pieces are welcome. The A-volume also publishes symposia,
and review essays on new works in the history of economic
thought, methodology and related fields (philosophy of
science, sociology of science, rhetoric of science, and
intellectual history), including multiple reviews of the
same work. The annual B- and C-volumes are archival
supplements that present hitherto unpublished
materials—lecture notes, papers, longer manuscripts,
correspondence, etc.—of interest in both fields.

Industrial Economics
Innovations (Cahiers d'économie de
l'innovation)
Innovations is an academic review which presents in priority
articles in economics (innovation, industrial,
international, labor economics). This review also accepts
contributions from other academic fields such as law,
management, and political science when analyzing the origins
and implications of economic and social innovations.
Innovations wants to be a forum where economy and society
evolutions are debated, while confronting theoretical
analyses and empirical experiences. Technical change,
entrepreneurs' action, firm strategies, social relationships
and conflicts, economic policies, etc. lead to many
interrogations and articles are selected by Innovations
editorial and scientific committee because they contribute
to the debate by offering…innovative analyses!

Journal of Innovation Economics
Innovation is defined by the creation and commercialization
of a new product and new technologies, the use of new
production processes and labour inputs or the entering in
new markets. Knowledge economy implies that innovation is
more and more the outcome of interaction between firms,
universities, public institutions and consumers. Networks of
innovation create new knowledge and commercialise it,
embodied in new modes of production and distribution.
Innovation stems from technological, organizational and
distributional change. Journal of Innovation Economics is a
lieu of discussion of new innovation strategies of firms and
organization which have an impact on the economy and
society. How do firms conceive innovation processes? How
does innovation impact on firms’ competitiveness and
performance? The journal hosts contributions to the analysis
of the realisation of innovation, strategies of
appropriation and those of diffusion of knowledge at an
international scale, where MNCs dominate the competition
context and high skilled human resources are a precious
asset to survive. JIE readers will enjoy as well discussions
on the most appropriate management tools to have a better
understanding of how to operationalise and implement
innovation. JIE is keen in promoting a multidisciplinary
approach and methodology which illustrate firms’
technological opportunities, organizational strategies and
integrated management of research and development projects,
marketing and finance. JIE is devoted to promote a debate on
innovation, both theoretical and empirical. Technological
change,
entrepreneurship, firms strategies, public policies and more
in general the evolution of the economies and societies are
the issues to be explored within JIE.

Capitalism, Nature, Socialism
Capitalism Nature Socialism (CNS) is an international
red-green journal of theory and politics. Key themes are the
dialectics of human and natural history; labor and land;
workplace struggles and community struggles; economics and
ecology; and the politics of ecology and ecology of
politics. The journal is especially concerned to join (and
relate) discourses on labor, ecology, feminist and community
movements; and on radical democracy and human rights. As a
journal of theory and politics, CNS's first aim is to help
build a critical red-green intellectual culture, which we
regard as essential for the development of a red-green
politics. To this end, we have helped to establish sister
journals in Italy, Spain, and France and we collaborate with
like-minded publications, scholars, and activists in
Germany, the UK, Brazil, Mexico, India, and many other
countries and regions. CNS publishes four times a year. It
is edited in Santa Cruz, California, and by editorial groups
in Boston, New York, Toronto, and the UK. Roughly half of
the journal's editors-at-large live and work in the South.
Through formal and informal international networks, CNS has
access to the very best red-green thinking around the world.
CNS authors include Joan Martínez Alier, Ramachandra Guha,
Enrique Leff, Alain Lipietz, Mary Mellor, Valentino Parlato,
Maria Pilar Garcia, Victor Toledo, and other overseas
figures in the international red-green, feminist movement,
as well as younger scholars and activists whose work CNS is
making known to English-speaking readers. CNS is
non-sectarian. We are affiliated with no political party or
organized political tendency and are open to diverse views
within global radical ecology/ecological radical movements.
While we are a political journal, we try to maintain high
standards of scholarship, as well to encourage discussion
and debate
about all the themes and issues bearing on our general
subject.

Critical Perspectives on
International Business
Critical Perspectives on International Business is the only
journal that exclusively supports critically reflexive
discussion of the nature and impact of international
business activity from trans- and multi-disciplinary
perspectives, rather than within specific fields. The
journal encourages readers to engage with, and build upon,
writings and activities from the broader societal context
that challenge the hegemony of global and transnational
corporations, of managerial orthodoxy and of dominant
academic discourse. In recent years, the business practices
and management philosophies of global enterprises have been
subject to increasingly close scrutiny by commentators in
the fields of journalism and academia. Such scrutiny has
been motivated by a growing desire to examine the nature of
globalisation, its impact onspecific communities and its
benefits for society as a whole. Critical Perspectives on
International Business provides a space for researchers and
practitioners in diverse fields such as management,
politics, economics, geography, etc., to come together to
examine questions surrounding international business and
approaches to management practice.

Critical Sociology
Critical Sociology is an international peer reviewed journal
that publishes the highest quality original research. For
over three decades Critical Sociology has been a leading
voice of sociological analysis from a political economy
perspective. This journal is a must for sociologists and
anyone else seeking to understand the most pressing issues
of the day as they are informed by race, class and gender.
Originally published as the Insurgent Sociologist, formed as
a result of the social action of the 1960s "Sociology
Liberation Movement" which erupted at the 1969 meetings of
the American Sociological Association, Critical Sociology
has been committed to publishing scholarship from a Marxist,
post-Marxist, Feminist, and other critical perspectives. Its
current editorial mission is to encourage scholarship that
seeks to understand contemporary Capitalist society. Today
the journal remains one of the few sources of critical
research on a wide range of topics within sociology, and
increasingly from an international perspective. Recent
articles on globalization, economic development, religion,
the environment, labor movements, social policy, and the
sociology of work reflect the journal's commitment to a
broad range of topics, all linked by common goals of
critically examining how society functions and of exploring
the potential for progressive social change.

Critique: Journal of Socialist Theory
Critique is an independent, refereed, scholarly journal
founded in 1973. It attempts to analyse contemporary society
from a critical Marxist perspective. Critique takes the view
that Marxism has been so degraded by the Stalinist period
that much of what has passed for Marxism has ranged between
incoherent nonsense and empty if complex scholastic schema.
Since socialism in one country is a theoretical and
practical impossibility, Critique rejected and continues to
reject analyses purporting to show this or that country is
or was socialist. Furthermore, Critique emphatically insists
on the impossibility of an undemocratic socialism. The aim
of Critique is to take part in the restoration of the
earlier pre-eminence of Marxist thought by encouraging
discussion around the political economy of contemporary
capitalist and non-capitalist societies. For this purpose,
it regards debate around methodology and as a consequence
philosophy to be essential. Inevitably, contemporary
political economy must also involve debate around the
importance of historical events and so Critique encourages
contributions of historical analysis. In short, Critique's
aim is to publish theoretical work at various levels of
abstraction from the most profound to that of analytical
description in order to help provide the theory required for
socialist change, which with the end of Stalinism is once
more on the agenda.

Critique of Political Economy
Critique of Political Economy is an interdisciplinary
journal, devoted to the critique of political economy. It is
not just another journal of economics. COPE seeks to
challenge and break down the separation between political
economy and social knowledge as a whole, which we regard as
a product of academic over-specialization and lack of
confidence that critical thought can address social life as
a whole. Thus we actively encourage relevant contributions
from, and the participation of, scholars from outside of the
economics profession and, indeed, from outside of academia.
We particularly encourage contributions from scholars in the
global South, whose voices are seriously underrepresented in
the academic journals of the North.

Cultural Science
Cultural Science is emerging as the result of dialogue and
convergence between evolutionary/complexity theory
(especially in evolutionary economics) and the study of
change in human relationships and identities (especially in
creative industries and cultural studies). The problem of
dynamic change has proven to be disruptive and challenging
in the study of both economic and human values. Creative
productivity has always emerged from human interactions, but
it is increasingly mediated by technologies that promote
subjective mental representations as networks, in which
space and time are compressed through the continual
dissemination and retrieval of stored events. The
interaction of people within this “social network economy”
creates a continual flux of ephemeral communities and novel
entrepreneurial opportunities, with unforeseen consequences
being the norm rather than the exception. This process of
“creative destruction” is best addressed by the humanities
allying with the dynamic science of evolution -- the study
of continual change through variation, interaction,
selection and drift. Cultural Science therefore seeks an
evolutionary understanding of a knowledge- based society
past and present, in order to map the possibility space of
future scenarios for creative productivity (both
market-based and in community contexts) to which public
policy and business strategies must adapt.
