Reflecting the diverse, comparative and multidisciplinary nature of the field, Foreign Policy Analysis provides an open forum for research publication that enhances the communication of concepts and ideas across theoretical, methodological, geographical and disciplinary boundaries. By emphasizing accessibility of content for scholars of all perspectives and approaches in the editorial and review process, Foreign Policy Analysis serves as a source for efforts at theoretical and methodological integration and deepening the conceptual debates throughout this rich and complex academic research tradition. Foreign policy analysis, as a field of study, is characterized by its actor-specific focus. The underlying, often implicit argument is that the source of international politics and change in international politics is human beings, acting individually or in groups. In the simplest terms, foreign policy analysis is the study of the process, effects, causes or outputs of foreign policy decision-making in either a comparative or case-specific manner.

The Journal of Bioethical Inquiry is a forum for discussing and debating ethical, cultural and social issues arising in medicine, the health sciences and health care in general. Coverage includes core areas of conventional bioethics, such as research, clinical practice and medical technology. The journal also addresses questions of pressing contemporary relevance, such as the implications of current world events for the health of populations, and critical analyses of specific social policies around the world and their likely impact on health and welfare and systems of power. In addition to original research, regular features include: New developments; Reader Response; and case scenarios with commentaries.

Global Public Health is an essential peer-reviewed journal that energetically engages with key public health issues that have come to the fore in the global environment — mounting inequalities between rich and poor, the globalization of trade, new patterns of travel and migration, epidemics of newly-emerging and re-emerging infectious diseases, the HIV/AIDS pandemic, the increase in chronic illnesses, escalating pressure on public health infrastructures around the world, and the growing range and scale of conflict situations, terrorist threats, environmental pressures, natural and human-made disasters. Directed and supported by a leading international board of experts, the journal is broad-based and wide-ranging, including work that draws on the environmental health sciences; epidemiology; health policy and management; and the social sciences as applied to public health and medicine. It is characterized and distinguished from other journals currently available in the field by its: global and multidisciplinary focus; emphasis on significant global health issues, including their social and cultural dimensions as appropriate; and, concern to understand resource-poor and resource-rich countries, and the public health challenges they face, as part of a single, interacting, global system. Therefore, the journal is keen to publish manuscripts with analysis emphasizing each of the following: The role of significant social factors, especially social inequalities, as determinants of health; Politics and policy, both as shaping health outcomes and as important components of health systems; and The global and the ways in which any specific case study raises issues about global processes or systems.

Studies in Language (SL) provides a forum for the discussion of issues in contemporary linguistics from discourse-pragmatic, functional and typological perspectives. Areas of central concern are: discourse grammar; syntactic, morphological and semantic universals; pragmatics; grammaticalization and grammaticalization theory; and the description of problems in individual languages from a discourse-pragmatic, functional, and typological perspective. For regular article contributions, the priority of a typological and cross-linguistic perspective is high: Articles on one language are welcome if of interest to the generalist/universalist. Likewise, interdisciplinary studies are welcome to the extent that they have the same perspective. In addition to regular articles, SL welcomes short contributions that report on new discoveries in little-known and/or endangered languages, emphasizing description over theory and comparison, and that are published in a special section to the journal. Contributions to this section typically derive from original fieldwork and are expected to provide concise and well-substantiated analyses of linguistic phenomena that have not been noticed much in general or in the relevant family or area but for which the wider theoretical implications cannot be established yet.This journal is peer reviewed and indexed in: Social Sciences Citation Index; Social Scisearch; Current Contents/Social and Behavioral Sciences; Journal Citation Reports/Social Sciences Edition; Arts & Humanities Citation Index; Abstracts in English Studies; Cultures, Langues, Textes; European Reference Index for the Humanities; Germanistik; Humanities Index; IBR/IBZ; Linguistics Abstracts; Linguistic Bibliography/Bibliographie Linguistique; LLBA; MLA International Bibliography, TSA Online.

Such reports are expected to show how the study builds on critical review of relevant literature and to provide an account of the methods and procedures used. Reports on thoughtful replications or variations of key earlier studies are welcome, as are critical reviews of some well-defined aspect of mathematics education. The journal welcomes high-quality research in any methodological tradition and is open to innovative and unusual approaches. All submissions are peer-reviewed.The Current Reports section contains short summaries of research papers which have been recently published in the online informal proceedings of the meetings of BSRLM.The Book Reviews section contains reviews of recent publications in the field.

African Security is a new journal dedicated to the exploration of fresh approaches to understanding Africa,s conflicts and security concerns. Publishing three issues per annum, African Security investigates competing analytical approaches to understanding security while engaging in discussions of real world security issues in Africa. In particular, the journal seeks to investigate the myriad issues relating to conflict and security within and between African nations, not only from the more traditional approaches to security studies but also from more novel and innovative perspectives.The issues that define African security are hardly unique; they may, nonetheless, be more pronounced there than anywhere else. In order to truly understand conflict in Africa, existing paradigms in national and international security must be challenged. African security cannot be understood by applying only traditional theories and approaches to the study of international security, and to this end African Security seeks to push the envelope of traditional security studies, but in a way very much grounded in the extant security issues facing Africa. While the journal is based in the disciplines of political science, international relations, and international security, it welcomes theoretical challenges to how we understand conflict and security drawn from the perspectives of other disciplines, such as anthropology, development studies, environmental studies, and economics.Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.
