American Journal of Economics and Sociology

The American Journal of Economics and Sociology (AJES) was founded in 1941, with support from the Robert Schalkenbach Foundation, to encourage the development of transdisciplinary solutions to social problems. The journal is currently undergoing a transition. It is renewing its original mission by publishing thematic issues on institutional responses to contemporary disruptions of social harmony and environmental sustainability. Unsolicited manuscripts are not accepted.

In all scientific research, even in the most seemingly neutral empirical investigation, there can never be a strict separation between fact and value, between positive and normative judgment. Choices of subject matter, methodology, and framing of issues all involve values. Rather than striving for artificial neutrality, the journal will encourage authors to advocate positions by articulating their presuppositions in terms of principles, policies, or methods.

The same principle applies to the journal itself. In the selection of topics for the journal and to some extent in the selection of authors, the journal will exhibit an ideological bias. At this stage, it is enough to say that the journal favors the economic preconditions for republican government: sufficient economic equality to permit every citizen to participate fully in public life. The editor will select topics that regard highly concentrated wealth and political power as problems. Over time, other editorial biases will become apparent.

Brazilian Journal of Political Economy

Since its first issue, January 1981, the Brazilian Journal of Political Economy is a peer reviewed journal, which sees economics as political economy. Papers with Keynesian, structuralist, or institutionalist approaches are welcome.
The Journal publishes papers on development economics and macroeconomics, adopting a historical-deductive method, as well as papers criticizing economic theory. The Journal also welcomes applied papers containing relevant research, having priority papers on developing countries. In the revisions of the literature the Brazilian and Latin-American relevant authors are not supposed to be left aside. In the case of econometric studies, the technical aspects are supposed to be published only in the journal’s electronic edition.

The papers are published according to the date that they are approved, but some priority will be given to the ones in English. In accepting the submission the Journal adopts as additional criterion the scope of the paper and its interest in publishing it.

The Brazilian Journal of Political Economy will publish papers on political economy and political theory, that is, papers that relate economics or the market with the state or with politics. Papers on developing countries will have priority. The Journal will not consider for publication either excessively abstract mathematical papers, or purely econometric papers with limited scope. TheJournal maintains its pluralistic character, welcoming papers ranging from institutionalist, Keynesian, Schumpeterian, and structuralist approaches, originated from economists as well as political scientists. We emphasize that the authors respect the Instructions for Contributors, particularly with what concerns to the size limits. Papers will be refereed by peer reviewers and, after approved, will be published essentially according to the order of approval.

New School Economic Review

At a time of declining representation of critical thinking in economics, the New School Economic Review aims to be a student-run journal with a content influenced by the history and tradition of the New School. New School s history points to a multidisciplinary and heterodox approach to the social sciences. The early Classical thinkers Smith, Ricardo and Marx realized that the study of economics must be the study of political economy economics within a social and political context. In keeping with this tradition, the New School Economic Review will serve as a medium for critical thinking in economics but with a multidisciplinary perspective encompassing all the social sciences. Furthermore, the NSER will aim to develop a forum for professors, practitioners, and students to discuss current issues in the discipline of economics while sharing insights from other disciplines, as well as debating world political and social affairs.

More information can be obtained on the website ( http://www.syloslabini.info), where many of his writings are freely available.

PSL Quarterly Review was founded in 1947 under the name BNL Quarterly Review, and since year 2009 it is the journal of the Paolo Sylos Labini Association, presently published with a sponsorship of the BNP-Paribas group. PSL Quarterly Review publishes four issues a year, each covering a three-month period.

Review of Keynesian Economics

The Review of Keynesian Economics is a peer-reviewed journal, published 4 times a year, and is intended to promote research within the Keynesian paradigm, and is open to all forms of Keynesianism be it old Keynesianism, fundamental Keynesianism, neo-Keynesianism, Post Keynesianism, Sraffian Keynesianism, Kaleckian Keynesianism, or Marxist Keynesianism. We define Keynesian economics broadly as (1) holding that output and employment are normally constrained by aggregate demand, (2) holding that the problematic of aggregate demand shortage exists independently of price, nominal wage, and nominal interest rate rigidities, and (3) rejecting the claim that the real wage is equal to the marginal disutility of labor. This openness to all forms of Keynesianism reflects a desire to avoid intellectual sectarianism.

The journal will be dedicated to the development of Keynesian theory and policy. In our view, Keynesian theory should hold a similar place in economics to that held by the theory of evolution in biology. The journal aims to offer such support by providing a forum for developing and sharing Keynesian ideas. Not only does that include ideas about macroeconomic theory and policy, it also extends to microeconomic and meso-economic analysis and relevant empirical and historical research. We see a bright future for the Keynesian approach to macroeconomics and invite the economics profession to join us by subscribing to the journal and submitting manuscripts.

Régulation Review. Capitalism, Institutions, Powers

The Régulation Review. Capitalism, Institutions, Powers is an international, peer-reviewed, JEL-refereed, econlit-listed journal.

The journal seeks to provide a forum for research in the field of regulationist studies and, more broadly, for the full spectrum of institutionalist approaches in economics and beyond. The journal seeks above all to foster a broad discussion that includes other social sciences such as economic sociology, history, political science, management, etc.

Indeed, a historicized and socially grounded understanding of political economy appears more necessary than ever for a deeper understanding of the alternatives for economic policies and the strategic evolution of business, as well as their effects at the micro, meso, and macro levels. Sustaining global thinking about the transformation of capitalism, given the scales and diversity of its reconfigurations, means bringing together work from a variety of horizons. The journal welcomes research articles in English or French that focus on descriptions of the structural forms of contemporary capitalisms and on investigation of the new dynamics that are involved, as well as on the theoretical and methodological tools that enable these phenomena to be better understood. The review’s ambition is to take into account the most characteristic dimensions of contemporary changes, in particular:

  • Globalization and the constitution of new inter- and intra-state assemblies;

  • New forms of regulation which are set up at various levels (regional, State-Nation, but also new forms of sectorial or territorial regulations);

  • Factors likely to generate new forms of crises, particularly demographic and ecological questions;

  • Integration or marginalisation of countries in the southern hemisphere within contemporary capitalism;

  • New prospects for non-standard micro-economics, organizational studies;

  • Dynamic models…

Various types of texts will be published (after submission to the Reading Panel, RP, or Editorial Board, EB):

  • Scientific articles (RP with referee)

  • View point: opinion – debates – notes related to economic current events (EB)

  • Book and conference reports (EB)

  • PhD presentation (EB)

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.

OEconomia

OEconomia ­­– History / Methodology / Philosophy is a quarterly bilingual (French/English) peer-reviewed journal.

OEconomia ­has a broad coverage, publishing articles in history of economic thought, economic methodology and economic philosophy, but also in normative economics and economic history in relation to history of economic thought. Leading specialists also contribute to a rich and regular book review section freely accessible on the journal website.

The editorial project of OEconomia stems from the established fact that the community of researchers interested in history of economic thought, in economic methodology or philosophy, is a scattered community, as a result of a constant process of specialization over the last thirty years. Within the current context of growing fragmentation and transformations of economics as a discipline, especially in relation to other disciplines, it is time to gather together the insights from the historians of economic thought and specialists in economic methodology and philosophy, in order to put in perspective the transformations of the discipline today and in the past. The aim of Œconomia ­­ is to gather together specialists of those subfields and beyond, with the aim of promoting mutual enrichment of their methods and approaches, and to encourage a wide diffusion of their results. Œconomia ­­publishes regular thematic symposia on topics related to recent developments in economic analysis, economic history and policy.

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 Mart nez 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.

Ecological Economics

The journal is concerned with extending and integrating the study and management of nature's household (ecology) and humankind's household (economics).

Evolutionary and Institutional Economic Review

EIER is issued by the Japan Association for Evolutionary Economics to provide an international forum for new theoretical and empirical approaches to evolutionary and institutional economics. The Review, free from the view of equilibrium economics and methodological individualism, should face the diversity of human behavior and dynamic transformation of institutions. In the Review, economics is used in its broadest sense. It covers from the classic research in economic history, economic thought, economic theory, and management science to emerging research fields such as economic sociology, bio-economics, evolutionary game theory, agent-based modeling, complex systems study, econo-physics, experimental economics, and so on. The Review believes that a truly interdisciplinary discussion is needed to propel the investigation in the dynamic process of socio-economical change where institutions as emergent outcomes of human actions do matter. Though the Review is an official journal of the Japan Association for Evolutionary Economics, it welcomes non-members contributions from all parts of the world. All the contributions are refereed under strict scientific criterion, though the Review does not apply monolithic formalistic measure to them. Evolution goes hand in hand with diversities; this is also the spirit of the Review.

It is a forum where industrial historians explicitly relate their analyses to the state of the art in the relevant social sciences and propose conjectures and theories. Conversely, economists and practitioners of other social disciplines are encouraged to apply their models to the historical evidence.

The journal covers the following: the internal structures of firms; the history of technologies; the evolution of industries; the nature of competition; the decision rules and strategies; the relationship between firms characteristics and the institutional environment; the sociology of management and of the workforce; the performance of industries over time; the labour process and the organization of production; the relationship between, and boundaries of, organizations and markets; the nature of the learning process underlying technological and organizational change.

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.

Journal of Innovation Economics & Management

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.

Problemas del Desarrollo

Hacia finales de 1969, momento en que aparece el primer n mero de Problemas del Desarrollo, Revista Latinoamericana de Econom a, el entonces Comit Editorial, formado por Alonso Aguilar, Miguel ngel Bassols, Jos Luis Cece a, Roberto Martínez Le Clainche, Ram n Ram rez G mez y Ricardo Torres Gait n y bajo la dirección del maestro Fernando Carmona de la Pe a consideraron la creaci n de este rgano acad mico como una prioridad importante para incorporar a la econom a al estudio de los fen menos del desarrollo dentro de la llamada teor a del desarrollo . El trabajo interdisciplinario se hac a entonces como indispensable y al que deb an abocarse economistas como los que en ese momento creaban esta revista como una forma de dialogar con soci logos e historiadores. Los trabajos que aparecen en este primer n mero son pioneros a este respecto.

Desde entonces la revista Problemas del Desarrollo, en sus hoy 36 a os de existencia, fue atendiendo los compromisos contra dos para servir de foro a todas aquellas aportaciones que indagaban, sobre todo para el espacio latinoamericano y, en especial, el de M xico los obst culos al desarrollo. Muchas de stas significaron verdaderos hitos en los avances te ricos. Enumerarlas es una tarea que escapa a las posibilidades de este breve evento, ello no quiere decir de ning n modo ignorarlas. En sus p ginas queda memoria de los diferentes procesos de transformaci n econ mica que fueron acaeciendo en una gran parte de los pa ses latinoamericanos y tambi n de las relaciones entre M xico y sus m s cercanos vecinos del norte. Al mismo tiempo, la revista dio testimonio a trav s de muchos de los cr ticos de la econom a neocl sica de algunas de las m s importantes aportaciones que en los setenta empezaron a cuestionar desde los ngulos de la econom a pol tica algunos modelos que ya para entonces manifestaron sus flaquezas.

Desde noviembre de 2002 nos unimos al esfuerzo de la instituci n para ir creando y recreando los problemas del desarrollo con el fin de incorporar en este foro aquellas colaboraciones que la mundializaci n econ mica nos va imponiendo como deberes para inventar y reformar los subsistemas dentro de las diferentes teor as cient ficas. Mientras en los setenta la funci n del Estado se vislumbraba como parte indispensable de la marcha de las econom as del entonces tercer mundo hoy es necesario volver a revisarla y advertir de su debilitamiento en funci n de la creciente desigualdad social que d a a d a contemplamos. Cualquier espacio socioecon mico nacional es hoy una parte integrante del todo en el nivel mundial. El pensamiento cr tico motor en la creaci n de una revista como Problemas del Desarrollo fue y seguir siendo una de las vertientes de an lisis principales de este foro, y mediante l, se incorporar n nuevas herramientas para explicar las diferentes razones que promueven la inequidad social. Nuestras instituciones p blicas de educaci n superior est n obligadas a dar respuesta a muchas de las interrogantes que presenta el desarrollo econ mico en la etapa de la llamada globalizaci n.

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.

Radical Political Economy

Alternative Routes: A Journal of Critical Social Research

Alternate Routesis a scholarly, peer-reviewed journal published annually in the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Carleton University by a collaborative editorial committee consisting of faculty and graduate students. Established in 1977, AR has sought to provide an intellectual forum for engaging debate and interdisciplinary inquiry. In working closely with international scholars, labour organizers and social justice activists, the editorial emphasis is on the publication of non-traditional, provocative and radical analyses that may not find a forum in conventional academic or mainstream venues. AR seeks to cultivate a public academic journal and encourages submissions that advance or challenge theoretical and contemporary issues related to political, economic and cultural processes that shape social interactions, as well as works dedicated to progressive political interventions. In addition to full-length articles, AR welcomes review essays sparked by previously published material, interviews with academics or political figures, including media analyses, artistic and cultural works and book reviews. AR publishes primarily special-themed issues and therefore requests that submissions be related to the current call for papers. Submissions should be free of racist or sexist language, have limited technical or specialized terms and be written in a style that is accessible to our diverse readership.

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, Critiqueemphatically 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.

Marxism has manifested itself in the late 1990s from the pages of the Financial Times to new work by Fredric Jameson, Terry Eagleton and David Harvey. Unburdened by pre-1989 ideological baggage, Historical Materialism stands at the edge of a vibrant intellectual current, publishing a new generation of Marxist thinkers and scholars.

International Critical Thought

International Critical Thought aims to cultivate, encourage and facilitate the development and dissemination of thinking and scholarship responding to the profound social, political, cultural and economic changes taking place in the world today. It tries:

  • To provide a multi-disciplinary forum for reflection upon and insight into the major problems facing humanity (energy, environment, poverty, war, etc.), as well as a forge, where living and breathing contemporary experiences can be processed into works of theoretical depth and scholarly rigor.
  • To build a global forum for dialogue not only within the left but also among various other social currents, as an attempt to better integrate different perspectives and reconcile different needs and interests, a task particularly necessary today when none of the existing social and political philosophies have proven entirely right or wrong.
  • To emphasize the position of the Third World and bring attention to the practical, theoretical and methodological efforts made within non-Western contexts, in view of the fact that the future of human development requires cultural diversity to counterbalance the linear evolutionism characteristic of most modern Western theories, including Marxism.
  • To highlight the case of China, whose course strayed from the Russian path in the socialist era and from the American one in the reform period, well demonstrates the possibility and reality of alternative approach, and where historical turning toward a new type of socialism is going to take place, a matter of doubtless significance for the future development of the humanity.

New Political Economy

New Political Economy aims to create a forum for work which combines the breadth of vision which characterised the classical political economy of the nineteenth century with the analytical advances of twentieth century social science. It seeks to build on conceptual innovations, such as structuration theory, institutional economics and the new public choice, which have tried to create an integrated analysis, thereby combining parsimonious theories which analyse agency in terms of instrumental rationality with contextual theories which analyse structures institutionally and historically. The main emphasis will be on exploratory and innovative work which draws on different disciplines and addresses core issues in the main constituent elements of its research agenda, namely: comparative political economy; the political economy of the environment; the political economy of development; and international political economy.

New Proposals: Journal of Marxism and Interdisciplinary Inquiry

This journal represents an attempt to explore issues, ideas, and problems that lie at the intersection between the academic disciplines of social science and the body of thought and political practice that has constituted Marxism over the last 150 years. New Proposals is a journal of Marxism and interdisciplinary Inquiry that is dedicated to the radical transformation of the contemporary world order. We see our role as providing a platform for research, commentary, and debate of the highest scholarly quality that contributes to the struggle to create a more just and humane world, in which the systematic and continuous exploitation, oppression, and fratricidal struggles that characterize the contemporary sociopolitical order no longer exist.

Research in Political Economy

This Research annual is founded on analyzing society in a manner consistent with classical Marxism. International in scope, the annual volumes deal primarily with economic and political issues and the unity between them. Both theoretical and empirical works are included. While published papers must be appropriate for developing class analysis of society, they need not be explicitly Marxist. The Research can accept papers up to 50 pages in print (on occasion, even longer) and thus is appropriate for work which is not book length, yet is substantial. For submissions, please send your paper, double-spaced type with noting as endnotes followed by a reference list, to the editor either electronically or three copies to the postal address above. Usual practice is review by two competent persons, on a double-blind basis, within a relatively short period of time.

Rethinking Marxism

In 1988, perhaps few believed that a new, interdisciplinary, Marxist journal could survive, particularly in the United States. The dedication of the journal s individual and institutional subscribers and readers has allowed it to flourish. By sponsoring four international gala conferences, each attended by hundreds of Marxists and Leftists throughout the world, this journal, and its sponsoring organization, the Association for Economic and Social Analysis, engage and sustain critical conversations about the tremendous challenges and exciting opportunities facing Marxism and the global Left. Your subscription helps insure the growth of these truly unique Marxist theoretical, political, and artistic interventions.

Review of Capital as Power

The framework of capital as power offers a radical alternative to both liberal and Marxist political economies. In this framework, capital is viewed not as a productive economic entity, but as the central power institution of capitalist society at large, while capitalism as a whole is seen not as mode of production and consumption, but as a mode of power.

The purpose of RECASP is to critically theorize, historicize and empirically research capital as power and capitalism as a conflictual mode of power. The area of inquiry is wide open, and we welcome big-picture contributions as well more focused research.

Researchers and analysts within these traditions seek to understand how political, economic and cultural processes and struggles interact to shape and reshape the conditions of people's lives. Established in 1979, SPE has, as a Political Economy Journal, become a major forum for people who identify with the struggles to overcome exploitation, exclusion and oppression in Canada and abroad. SPE is especially interested in work by, for and about Canadians, but it aims to be an international Political Economy journal. It welcomes contributions in every field of political economy and within all the traditions of socialist scholarship, including those which question established paradigms. Those who pursue progressive work within different frameworks will find SPE a venue for communicating with a wide and diversified audience. In addition to articles, Studies in Political Economy publishes interviews, short essays on contemporary political issues, review essays and comments on articles it has published.

World Review of Political Economy

The World Review of Political Economy (WRPE) is a quarterly, peer-reviewed title to be published by Pluto Journals in close association with the Shanghai-based World Association for Political Economy (WAPE), with the first issue scheduled to appear in spring 2010. This groundbreaking project is the first of its kind: a pioneering collaboration between Chinese academics and a Western left publisher to produce a serious periodical of Marxist political economy. The WRPE is certain to be the essential forum for dialogue, cooperation, debate, and the sharing of cutting-edge research among the leading scholars in China, the English-speaking world, and beyond.

In its progressive approach to analyzing the social and economic problems facing humankind, the WRPE reflects the outlook of its founding organization. The World Association for Political Economy, registered in Hong Kong, China, in 2004, is an international nongovernmental academic body founded on an open, non-profit and voluntary basis by left economists and related groups from around the world. The WAPE secretariat is based at the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics. The present chairman is president of the Academy of Marxism, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences.

Work and Industrial Relations

Economics and Labour Relations Review

The Economic and Labour Relations Review aims to bring together research in economics and labour relations in a multi-disciplinary approach to policy questions. It publishes research that is country-specific or based on regional comparisons, or that analyses global trends. In the context of the severest economic crisis since the Great Depression, the journal encourages articles that critically assess dominant policy orthodoxies, as well as alternative models, thereby facilitating informed debate. The journal particularly encourages articles that take a critical approach to neoliberalism, that adopt a post-Keynesian (heterodox) approach to economics, or that explore rights-, equality- or justice-based approaches to labour relations and social policy.

Link to the journal is available here.

Gender, Work, and Organization

Awareness of gender as a central feature of all aspects of everyday life and society has become more and more widespread. Appropriately social sciences research is reflecting this increasing concern with gender, especially in the field of work and organization where this journal is focused. Gender, Work & Organization is the first journal to bring together a wide range of interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary research in this field into a new international forum for debate and analysis. Contributions are invited from all disciplinary perspectives including anthropology, history, labour economics, law, philosophy, politics, psychology, and sociology.

International Labor Review

The International Labour Review has been the International Labour Organization s (ILO) flagship journal since 1921. As a global multidisciplinary journal of labour and social policies and relationships, the new ILR is open to articles which meet scholarly standards but which are written in a way that is accessible to a wider readership. They may cover any of the fields of interest of the ILO employment and labour markets, training and skills development, social security and social protection, labour law and labour institutions, rights at work and social dialogue. The pages of the journal are also open to all relevant disciplines economics, law, sociology, political science and articles taking an interdisciplinary perspective are particularly welcome. Articles may report on the results of empirical work at national level or drawing on international comparisons; they may offer new conceptual frameworks or review the state of knowledge on key issues. The intention is to attract contributions from all parts of the world, and to inform policy debates on key labour and social issues. In addition to the main articles, a separate section will contain a small number of reviews of major books, and a new Notes, debates and communications section will report on recent and upcoming events of interest to the readership, analyse important recent developments in the world of work, and provide summaries and access to important documents with major policy implications for labour and development. As one of the few journals to come out in English, French and Spanish, with a worldwide readership, the ILR aims to become the obvious first choice for publication of high-quality research by all those concerned with labour and employment.

Work Organisation, Labour and Globalisation

The globalisation of world trade in combination with the use of information and communications technologies is bringing about a new international division of labour, not just in manufacturing industry, as in the past, but also in work involving the processing of information. Organisational restructuring shatters the unity of the traditional workplace, both contractually and spatially, dispersing work across the globe in ever-more attenuated value chains. A new cybertariat is in the making, sharing common labour processes, but working in remote offices and call centres which may be continents apart and occupying very different cultural and economic places in local economies. The implications of this are far-reaching, both for policy and for scholarship. The dynamics of this new global division of labour cannot be captured adequately within the framework of any single academic discipline. On the contrary they can only be understood in the light of a combination of insights from fields including political economy, the sociology of work, organisational theory, economic geography, development studies, industrial relations, comparative social policy, communications studies, technology policy and gender studies. This journal aims to bring together insights from all these fields to create a single authoritative source of information on the new global division of labour, combining theoretical analysis with the results of empirical research in a way that is accessible both to the research community and to policy-makers.

Work, Employment and Society

Work, Employment and Society covers all aspects of work, employment and unemployment and their connections with wider social processes and social structures. The journal is sociologically orientated but welcomes contributions from other disciplines which addresses the issues in a way that informs less debated aspects of the journal s remit, such as unpaid labour and the informal economy. The journal adheres to high standards of scholarship but sees no conflict between accessibility and scholarships; submissions must be clear and free from jargon.

Cambridge Journal of Regions, Economy and Society

Our aim from the start has been to publish multi-disciplinary international theme-driven research on the spatial dimensions of contemporary socio-economic-political change. The objective is to combine topicality, engaging with the pressing issues of our time, with theoretical advance, contributing to the conceptualization, empirical investigation and explanation of those issues. The challenge over the next five years will be to build on these objectives. To this end, we will be announcing calls for papers on themes falling under a number of generic heads, namely:

  • The Foundations of Regional and Local Economic Growth
  • Spaces of Knowledge Production and Consumption
  • Inequality, Well-Being and Welfare
  • Geographies of Globalisation
  • Worlds of Money and Finance
  • Cities and the Urban Realm
  • Environment and Sustainable Development
  • Spatialities of Economic Regulation and Governance

Critical Perspectives on Accounting

Critical Perspectives on Accounting aims to provide a forum for the growing number of accounting researchers and practitioners who realize that conventional theory and practice is ill-suited to the challenges of the modern environment, and that accounting practices and corporate behavior are inextricably connected with many allocative, distributive, social, and ecological problems of our era. From such concerns, a new literature is emerging that seeks to reformulate corporate, social, and political activity, and the theoretical and practical means by which we apprehend and affect that activity.

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 on specific 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.

Debatte: Journal of Contemporary Central and Eastern Europe

Debatte: Journal of Contemporary Central and Eastern Europe seeks to provide a radical critical analysis that is sympathetic to democratic, labour, feminist and ecologist movements from contemporary economic, social, cultural and political perspectives and developments in the region bounded by Germany in the west and Russia in the east. We are particularly interested in all writing on the social, cultural, and political life of Germany and Eastern Europe which connects the specific problems of the region with the wider issues of world order, globalisation, and inequality. We are looking to combine political commitment, academic rigour, contemporary relevance, stylistic accessibility, and journalistic flair in order to create the kind of publication that straddles the boundaries between academia and social/political debate; addressing itself equally to specialist scholars in the field of Central European Studies, political activists, journalists, teachers, and other interested readers. Debatte, welcomes a variety of submissions from the social sciences, historical and cultural studies; all innovative and original analyses of any aspect of the region falling within the purview of the journal will be considered. All unsolicited manuscripts received will be subject to a rigorous peer review process. We are also interested in features beyond the traditional fare of academic journals, such as documentation, interviews, and eyewitness accounts, and will on occasion translate articles from journals published in the languages of Central and Eastern Europe which would otherwise not be available to our English-language readership.

Interface: A Journal for and about Social Movements

Interface: a journal for and about social movements is now into its sixth year and working on its eleventh issue (with two more years of discussion and planning before that!) Over this time we’ve brought together people researching and theorising movements to contribute to the production of knowledge that can help us learn from each other’s struggles: across languages, continents and cultures, across movements and issues, across the academic / activist divide, and across political and intellectual traditions.

We’ve brought out issues on movement knowledge, on the relationship between civil society and social movements, on crisis and revolutionary transformations, on movements and alternative media, on repression, on feminism and women’s movements, on the Arab Spring, on new struggles around work and on anticolonial and postcolonial movements. Alongside these themes, special sections have focussed on debating David Harvey, on international labour communication and on feminist strategies for change, with a forthcoming special section on the new European mobilizations. Each issue also includes many items on topics beyond these special themes. In all our first ten issues run to 4,041 pages and 238 pieces!

International Journal of Public Policy

The IJPP proposes and fosters discussion on public policy issues facing nation states and national and supranational organizations, including governments, and how these diverse groups approach and solve common public policy problems. The emphasis will be on governance, accountability, the creation of wealth and wellbeing, and the implications policy choices have on nation states and their citizens. This perspective acknowledges that public policy choice and execution is complex and has ramifications on the welfare of citizens; and that, despite national differences, the actions of nation states are constrained by policies determined by supranational bodies, some of which are not directly accountable to any international body. The theoretical approaches welcomed in the IJPP are plural and multifaceted, however a critical stance is favored.

Journal of Human Development and Capabilities

A Multi-Disciplinary Journal for People-Centered Development is the peer-reviewed journal of the Human Development and Capabilities Association. It was launched in January 2000 to provide new perspectives on challenges of human development, capability expansion, poverty eradication, human well being, markets, growth, social justice and human rights. The human development approach recognizes that development is about more than just economic growth. It is also about improving the well being of people, and expanding the choices and opportunities they have. Development policies cut across economic, social and political issues.

The Journal publishes original work in economics, philosophy, social sciences and other disciplines that expand concepts, measurement tools and policy alternatives. It provides a forum for an open exchange of ideas among a broad spectrum of policy makers, economists and academics. It addresses issues at global, national and local levels. Human development is becoming a school of thought for alternative economic approaches, and the Journal will act as a conduit for members and critics of this school.

Journal of Interdisciplinary Economics

The explosion of information and research that has taken place in recent years has had a profound effect upon a variety of existing academic disciplines giving rise to the dissolution of barriers between some, mergers between others, and the creation of entirely new fields of enquiry. The social sciences have not been immune to the effects of this transformation, but a great deal of relevant information that has been discovered in related fields of study that include inter alia sociology, psychology, history and anthropology, still has yet to be fully incorporated into the central body of economic doctrines traditionally taught in colleges and universities. Economics, as a result, has been shielded from exciting developments that have occurred in the physical sciences, philosophy, technology and mathematics. The Journal of Interdisciplinary Economics is a forum in which those who wish to expand the boundaries of economic science, are invited to seek out the hidden assumptions that determine the conventional economist s world view, relax them and so evolve a new discipline more appropriate to the contemporary global environment within which the discipline exists, and so enable economists to tackle problems that have been created within that environment. This process of rethinking will be encouraged by papers written by those who wish to contribute, by the editor or members of the editorial board, and attention will be drawn to neglected boundary areas and axioms that may not be self-evident. Papers and comments are also welcomed, again not necessarily from professional and academic economists, in response to the papers and comments.

Journal of World-Systems Research

The main editorial goal of the Journal of World-Systems Research is to develop and disseminate scholarly research on topics that are relevant to the analysis of world-systems. We especially want to include works that proceed from several different theoretical stances and disciplines. These include, but are not limited to, civilizationists, evolutionary approaches, international political economy, comparative, historical and cultural analysis. We seek the work of political scientists, historians, sociologists, ethnographers, archaeologists, economists and geographers.

We especially encourage works that take theory seriously by confronting problems of conceptualization and making definitions of concepts explicit, by formulating hypotheses, constructing axiomatic theories and causal models. Theoretical research programs that combine theory construction with comparative research are badly needed to take the world-systems approach beyond the stage of a perspective.JWSR will consider studies that utilize a wide range of methods, including both qualitative and quantitative research. We also consider studies based on community based research (see Guidelines for Community Based Research). Any empirical study that is deemed relevant to world-systems analysis may be published even if it uses a very different conceptual framework.

Local Economy

Founded in 1986, Local Economy brings together policy analysts, researchers and practitioners concerned with local economic policies and social justice. Local Economy aims to make academic research accessible to all working in the broad field of local economic and social change.

From its origins at the Local Economy Policy Unit (LEPU) at London South Bank University, with which it maintains a close relationship, the journal has grown into the premier UK-based journal for those who want to critically engage with problems of local economic development and regeneration that maintain a commitment to grassroots activism, social justice and economic empowerment.

Local Economy is a peer-reviewed journal operating as an interdisciplinary forum for the critical review of policy developments in the broad area of local economic development and urban regeneration. It seeks not only to publish analysis and critique but also to disseminate innovative practice.

One particular concern is with grassroots community economic development strategies and the work of voluntary organisations, considered within the context of wider social, political and economic change.

Momentum Quarterly

Momentum Quarterly is a transdisciplinary scientific journal, aiming to improve the discursive and thematic connection between research and political praxis. Following this basic principle,Momentum Quarterly publishes specifically works that provide a well-founded scientific reflection of political topics and problems, thereby emphasizing thematic and disciplinary openness. By publishing progressive ideas and concepts as well as critical reflections of extant political praxis, Momentum Quarterly tries to balance conceptual autonomy and connection with politics. Contributions from heterodox economists roughly in line with these aims are therefore highly welcome. All papers published in Momentum Quarterly undergo a peer-review process based upon the principle of reciprocal anonymity ( double blind ), while the final publication decision is made by the executive editors. Momentum Quarterly is an Open Access journal, which means that all papers are completely and free of charge available online. All works are licensed under Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Germany and can thus be redistributed without further consultations as long as proper credit to the original authors is given. Momentum Quarterly publishes English as well as German contributions.

On the Horizon

On the Horizon is a strategic planning resource for decision makers in the public and private sector and, in particular, education policy makers, administrators, practitioners, and researchers in post-secondary and life-long learning worldwide.

On the Horizon focuses on the increasingly complex intersection of forces that are impinging on education and learning and to which educators, human resource professionals and all committed to human potential must respond. Areas of interest include the changing needs of an increasingly global society, the economics and business of education delivery, changing policies and practices affecting curriculum content, certification and intellectual property, and rules and regulations governing institutions.

An international journal, On the Horizon, also explores the issues that are emerging as technology changes the nature of education and learning within and among institutions, other organizations, and across geo-political boundaries, as learning increasingly takes place outside of the traditional institutional environment.

Economic and Political Weekly

The Economic and Political Weekly, published from Mumbai, is an Indian institution which enjoys a global reputation for excellence in independent scholarship and critical inquiry.

First published in 1949 as the Economic Weekly and since 1966 as the Economic and Political Weekly, EPW, as the journal is popularly known, occupies a special place in the intellectual history of independent India. For more than five decades EPW has remained a unique forum that week after week has brought together academics, researchers, policy makers, independent thinkers, members of non-governmental organisations and political activists for debates straddling economics, politics, sociology, culture, the environment and numerous other disciplines.

EPW is also unique because it is the one forum where there is an exchange of ideas across the social science disciplines - political scientists debate with economists, sociologists read what political scientists have to say, historians study what economists have to say and so on.

EPW, published by the Sameeksha Trust, a registered charitable trust, is the only social science journal of its kind in the world. Where other reputed journals publish either only comments on contemporary affairs or research papers, EPW is unique in that every week it publishes analysis of contemporary affairs side by side with academic papers in the social sciences. The only other similar publication which contains short comments and research output is Nature of the U.K., which covers the physical sciences.

Economie appliquée

La revue a été fondée en 1946 par François Perroux pour contribuer au développement d'une "économie d'intention scientifique". Son souci était de créer une revue théorique en lien étroit avec la pratique économique, tout en répondant à deux préoccupations: faire vivre le pluralisme et soutenir le développement d'une théorie de la dynamique socio-économique. Ce "savoir économique scientifiquement contrôlé" repose sur la confrontation des observations (enquêtes quantitatives et qualitatives, travaux économétriques) et des interprétations correspondantes (visions, concepts, lois, théorèmes). La mise en oeuvre des "dynamiques structurelles" à l'oeuvre en chaque période de l'histoire exige en effet ce travail permanent d'élaboration et de rénovation théoriques. La revue "Economie Appliquée" est une des références obligées des étudiants et chercheurs en Sciences Sociales. Son prestige s'étend à l'étranger où elle bénéficie d'une audience certaine.

Ola Financiera

Ola Financiera was born with the aim of expanding the scientific research and dissemination of issues of contemporary financial economics. This is an academic effort backed by a large group of university researchers whose career in the analysis of these issues goes back more than three decades.

The dynamic and changing world of financial economics has shown a greater preeminence in the global economic and political future. Power and money are being redistributed in today's world and the social sciences require ever more analysis and accurate information on these issues. A world with a new distribution of power and emerging and declining powers is producing diverse effects in almost all productive sectors and markets of the various regions of the world. There are multiple conditions and that condition the contradictions of the financial world: inflation-deflation-stagflation; changes in relative prices and patterns of consumption and savings; labor flexibility, declines in formal employment and the income of employees, and new production models.

This is the importance of having original and well founded analyses of financial economics, which offers a space for reflection at national and regional levels as well as the tools and knowledge necessary to develop ideas and policies to meet the challenges of development.

Although the topics examined in the journal are diverse and complex, the university reserchers supporting this venture have found an enthusiastic reception among Ola Financiera's readership. The journal is a joint effort between the Faculty of Economics and the Institute of Economic Research at the UNAM, the product of years of dedication to the research and teaching and dissemination in financial economics. This project seeks to maintain the excellence and originality of the work published, and we therefore invite researchers, whether professors or graduate students, to send their contributions.

Revista de Economía Institucional

La Facultad de Economía de la Universidad Externado de Colombia se ha esforzado por crear y consolidar un espacio de reflexión alrededor de un tema central y de enorme actualidad: la economía institucional. Este esfuerzo está motivado por el convencimiento de que nos encontramos en una nueva etapa de desarrollo del sistema político y económico mundial, cuya comprensión es un desafío ineludible para los científicos sociales, así como para los centros de investigación y las organizaciones que buscan el bienestar social, el desarrollo de las instituciones políticas y un mejor funcionamiento de los mercados. El análisis de esta nueva configuración internacional requiere nuevas teorías, nuevos métodos, nuevas herramientas y un gran esfuerzo para romper las barreras disciplinarias impuestas por la especialización profesional. Los nuevos enfoques han identificado nuevos problemas e influyen cada vez más en la agenda de políticas de reforma de las instituciones económicas y políticas, así como del sistema legal.

La Revista de Economía Institucional es una publicación pluralista, abierta a la discusión y difusión de trabajos teóricos e investigaciones prácticas en estas áreas, de autores nacionales e internacionales. Busca divulgar los trabajos elaborados por investigadores de diversas universidades y centros de investigación del país, y difundir y someter a discusión los avances teóricos y metodológicos que se producen en otros países, con el fin de contribuir a conformar una comunidad académica congregada alrededor del libre examen.

Revue Française de Socio-Economie

On attend d'une nouvelle revue scientifique qu'elle définisse dans son premier éditorial ce qui fonde la légitimité de son existence, et plus encore quand cette revue se veut le support d'un domaine scientifique mixte, aux frontières encore à établir et dont la dénomination même est problématique. Cette attente risque d'être déçue ici car, pour le dire tout de go, le collectif de chercheurs à l'initiative de la Revue française de socio-économie (RFSE) a décidé de ne pas attendre d'avoir précisément défini ce qu' est la « socio-économie » pour lancer la revue du même nom.
