Journal Guide

The JBSP publishes papers on phenomenology and existential
philosophy as well as contributions from other fields of philosophy engaging
with topics in the tradition of Phenomenology. Papers from researchers
in the humanities and the human sciences interested in the philosophy of their
subject will be welcome too. Space will be given to research in progress, to
interdisciplinary discussion, and to book reviews.

Journalism Practice provides opportunities for reflective, critical and research-based studies focused on the professional practice of journalism. The emphasis on journalism practice does not imply any false or intellectually disabling disconnect between theory and practice, but simply an assertion that Journalism Practice’s primary concern is to analyse and explore issues of practice and professional relevance. Journalism Practice is an intellectually rigorous journal with all contributions being refereed anonymously by acknowledged international experts in the field. An intellectually lively, but professionally experienced, Editorial Board with a wide-ranging experience of journalism practice advises and supports the Editor.

Journalism Practice is devoted to: the study and analysis of significant issues arising from journalism as a field of professional practice; relevant developments in journalism training and education, as well as the construction of a reflective curriculum for journalism; analysis of journalism practice across the distinctive but converging media platforms of magazines, newspapers, online, radio and television; and the provision of a public space for practice-led, scholarly contributions from journalists as well as academics.

  Journalism Practice’s ambitious scope includes:

• the history of journalism practice;
• the professional practice of journalism;
• journalism training and education;
• journalism practice and new technology;
• journalism practice and ethics; and
• journalism practice and policy.

Journalism Practice complements current trends to expansion in the teaching and analysis of journalism practice within the academy, reflection on the emergence of a reflective curriculum and thereby helps to consolidate journalism as an intellectual discipline within the landscape of higher education.

All articles in Journalism Practice have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymised refereeing by two anonymous referees. Instructions for Authors can be found here. 

"Our field has long needed exactly this journal. Too often, much too often, in other academic journals, the professional practice of journalism is an afterthought - if it is a thought at all. With a distinguished, professionally-oriented, international editorial board, Journalism Practice promises to fill ably the largest void in our field."
Jack Lule, Joseph B. McFadden Distinguished Professor of Journalism, Lehigh University

Language Awareness encourages and disseminates work which explores the following: the role of explicit knowledge about language in the process of language learning; the role that such explicit knowledge about language plays in language teaching and how such knowledge can best be mediated by teachers; the role of explicit knowledge about language in language use: e.g. sensitivity to bias in language, manipulative aspects of language, literary use of language. It is also a goal of Language Awareness to encourage the establishment of bridges between the language sciences and other disciplines within or outside educational contexts.Language Awareness is an international forum for the reporting and critical discussion of language awareness research and practice, and for the building and development of relevant theory. The journal is open to contributions from a broad range of research approaches: qualitative and quantitative, established and innovative. It welcomes work dealing with a wide variety of languages and international contexts.The journal operates with a broad definition of language awareness. It embraces critical perspectives and consciousness-raising, extends to literary awareness, and integrates awareness of other (i.e. non-linguistic) areas of human communication. As a general guide, papers tend typically, but not exclusively, to fall within the following areas:Exploration of the means to develop one's language awareness and evaluation of the benefits to be derived from so doing, whether through metalinguistic introspection and reflection or through mediated explicit knowledge about language and conscious understanding of how languages work, of how people acquire, learn and teach languages, how they use them and are influenced by them. Investigation and critical understanding of the beliefs and attitudes about language, and the effects these have on language use, learning, and teaching, and their effects on the conduct of people's everyday lives and their interpersonal and intergroup relations. Papers may consider aspects of language awareness across the lifespan, from earliest development in children through to the elderly. They may focus on a wide range of contexts, including all levels and types of educational and training settings, all types of communication-sensitive professional fields (e.g. law, health, counselling, politics, marketing), as well as communication in wider communities and cultural settings, and relating to salient social issues such as ageism, racism and sexism. Contributors should not feel restricted by existing disciplinary boundaries, especially where their work seeks to build innovative and symbiotic bridges between language and communication sciences and other disciplines within or outside the educational context.Refereeing proceduresThe journal invites submissions of the highest academic and professional quality. Papers are peer reviewed anonymously by a minimum of two experts.DisclaimerTaylor & Francis makes every effort to ensure the accuracy of all the information (the 8220;Content8221;) contained in its publications.

Language & Education provides a forum for the discussion of recent topics and issues in the language disciplines which have an immediate bearing upon thought and practice in education. Articles draw from their subject matter important and well-communicated implications for one or more of the following: curriculum, pedagogy or evaluation in education.The task of the Journal is to encourage language specialists and language in education researchers to organise and present their material in such a way as to highlight its educational implications, thereby influencing educational theorists and practitioners and therefore educational outcomes for individual children.Articles are welcomed concerning all aspects of mother tongue and second language education. The remit of Language in Education, however, does not extend to modern foreign language teaching or English as a foreign language.Refereeing proceduresAll articles are anonymously peer reviewed by a minimum of two experts.

Language & Intercultural Communication promotes an interdisciplinary understanding of the interplay between language and intercultural communication. It therefore welcomes research into intercultural communication, particularly where it explores the importance of linguistic aspects; and research into language, especially the learning of foreign languages, where it explores the importance of intercultural perspectives. The journal is alert to the implications for education, especially higher education, and for language learning and teaching. It is also receptive to research on the frontiers between languages and cultures, and on the implications of linguistic and intercultural issues for the world of work. The journal seeks to advance a perception of the intercultural dimension of language within a complex and pluralist view of the world. To this end, it seeks always to resist reductive and hegemonic interpretations, and is stimulated by contemporary, critical perspectives in understanding cultural practices and intercultural relationships. Its aspiration to promote an understanding of the position and politics of language(s) in intercultural communication is conceived as a contribution to personal development and to interpersonal understanding, dialogue and co-operation. The journal also seeks to make an effective contribution to disseminating new ideas and examples of good practice in educating students in language and intercultural communication.Refereeing procedures Submissions are reviewed on a rolling basis and published in accordance with editorial priorities for themed or special conference issues. All papers are anonymously reviewed by a minimum of two experts.DisclaimerTaylor & Francis makes every effort to ensure the accuracy of all the information (the 8220;Content8221;) contained in its publications.

Language, Culture and Curriculum provides a forum for the discussion of the many factors, social, cultural, cognitive and organisational, which are relevant to the formulation and implementation of language curricula. Second languages, minority and heritage languages are a special concern. First-language and foreign language studies are also welcomed when they have implications for multiculturalism.Language Culture and Curriculum welcomes articles on language teaching programmes of all kinds that are designed to promote multiculturalism, with a special concern for weaker and threatened languages. Studies of first language learning are not excluded, nor are studies of English and other major languages, whether as first or as foreign and second languages, provided the topics of cultural content and learner motivation are prominent. Priority is given to articles dealing with language teaching, but historical, sociological and theoretical articles are welcomed if they deal with cultural and attitudinal aspects of language relevant to teaching practice.

Legal Ethics is an international and interdisciplinary journal devoted to the field of legal ethics.

Its focus is broad enough to encompass empirical research on the ethics and conduct of the legal professions and judiciary, studies of legal ethics education and moral development, ethics development in contemporary professional practice, the ethical responsibilities of law schools, professional bodies and government, and jurisprudential or wider philosophical reflections on law as an ethical system and on the moral obligations of individual lawyers.

As the pioneering journal in this field The Journal of Legal Pluralism and Unofficial Law (JLP) has a long history of publishing leading scholarship in the area of legal anthropology and legal pluralism and is the only international journal dedicated to the analysis of legal pluralism. It is a refereed scholarly journal with a genuinely global reach, publishing both empirical and theoretical contributions from a variety of disciplines, including (but not restricted to) Anthropology, Legal Studies, Development Studies and interdisciplinary studies. The JLP is devoted to scholarly writing and works that further current debates in the field of legal pluralism and to disseminating new and emerging findings from fieldwork. The Journal welcomes papers that make original contributions to understanding any aspect of legal pluralism and unofficial law, anywhere in the world, both in historic and contemporary contexts. We invite high-quality, original submissions that engage with this purpose.
