Safundi is a peer-reviewed quarterly academic journal that analyses the United States and South Africa from an international, transnational, and/or comparative perspective and seeks to understand each country in relation to the other. Although new comparative and transnational research forms the core of the journal, Safundi also publishes articles specifically addressing one country, provided the research is of interest to an international audience. The Editorial Board will consider submissions relating to other countries in southern Africa and the Americas, as well as to other parts of the world that allow for broader comparative insights. Articles that Safundi publishes are academic in nature. Intelligent, exploratory essays are also welcomed. We encourage interdisciplinary perspectives on a wide range of topics. The title Safundi derives from the initial letters of South Africa and America and the word fundi, which comes from the Xhosa verb, -funda, which translates as 'to read' or 'to learn'.

To view details of recent and forthcoming special issues, click hereOur culture is a scientific one, defining what is natural and what is rational. Its values can be seen in what are sought out as facts and made as artefacts, what are designed as processes and products, and what are forged as weapons and filmed as wonders. In our daily experience, power is exercised through expertise, e.g. in science, technology and medicine. Science as Culture explores how all these shape the values which contend for influence over the wider society.Science mediates our cultural experience. It increasingly defines what it is to be a person, through genetics, medicine and information technology. Its values get embodied and naturalized in concepts, techniques, research priorities, gadgets and advertising. Many films, artworks and novels express popular concerns about these developments.In a society where icons of progress are drawn from science, technology and medicine, they are either celebrated or demonised. Often their progress is feared as 'unnatural', while their critics are labelled 'irrational'. Public concerns are rebuffed by ostensibly value-neutral experts and positivist polemics.Yet the culture of science is open to study like any other culture. Cultural studies analyses the role of expertise throughout society. Many journals address the history, philosophy and social studies of science, its popularisation, and the public understanding of society.Amidst these journals, Science as Culture is 'the only source of critique of the way science is going', as one of our readers put it. Not simply criticism, critique analyses the underlying frameworks, assumptions and terms of reference. It emphasizes the fundamental role of values, interests, ideology and purposes -- which would otherwise remain hidden in the guise of neutrality and objectivity. Science as Culture places science within the wider debate on the values which constitute culture; it is not the journal for a particular academic discipline.Science as Culture encompasses people's experiences -- at the workplace, the cinema, the computer, the hospital, the home and the academy. The articles are readable, attractive, lively, often humorous, and always jargon-free. Science as Culture aims to be read at leisure, and to be a pleasure. Book Reviews: Offers of book reviews are welcome, and several books are available for sending to reviewers. See the list, editorial guidance and contact email address here.

Seventeenth-Century French Studies (SCFS), which first appeared in 1979, is the annual journal of the Society for Seventeenth-Century French Studies. Peer reviewed by an internationally-based editorial board and invited specialists, the journal publishes high-quality original articles in English and French on a broad range of literary, cultural, historical and theoretical topics relating to early modern France. Studies taking up questions of gender, iconography, body criticism, economics, history of costume and the poetics of memory have recently appeared in broadly themed volumes devoted to: the knowledge economy in the long seventeenth century, conversation, gossip and the voice, image and the imagination, and pedagogy and practice.SCFS welcomes the work of both established figures and young researchers, and has historically provided a unique forum for the strong British tradition of scholarship focussing on the great seventeenth-century French classics, encouraged and supported by the Society’s first president, Roy C Knight. Currently, the journal’s increasingly broad and inclusive stance has widened to include the full range of early modern literary, musical, artistic, political and material concerns. Interdisciplinary studies are particularly welcomed. Some highlights of recent volumes include John Lyons on Lafayette and gemology,Wendy Perkins on women and silence, Peter Bayley on the education of princes, Matt Senior on anatomy at the Jardin du roi, Michael Moriarty on images and idols, Jan Clarke on actresses, Delphine Denis on Scudéry and Alain Viala on stagings of Racine. Fully international in scope, the journal has encouraged contributions from throughout the UK, the US, France, Portugal, Sweden, Turkey, and the Republic of Ireland, among others.
