Journal Guide

The Journal of Jewish Education, the journal of the Network for Research in Jewish Education, is published four times per year.The journal provides a unique interdisciplinary forum for considering the diverse research and scholarly issues in Jewish education including curriculum and instruction, teacher preparation, Jewish identity development, history and philosophy of Jewish education, and the linkage between Jewish and general education. The journal's scope ranges from early childhood through adult education, in any setting in which Jewish education occurs.Contributions to the journal address issues unique to Jewish education, as well as the application of research and thought from general education. Further, a variety of methodological approaches and formats are represented. These include qualitative and quantitative empirical research studies, reflections on Jewish education past and present, and discussion of theoretical aspects of Jewish education. The Journal of Jewish Education has been the premier journal in the field of Jewish education for over 70 years. The mission of the Journal of Jewish Education is:To offer a standard of excellence for research and practice in Jewish education;To provide an outlet and an archival location for scholarship reflecting multiple ideological perspectives, multiple educational settings, and multiple disciplines;To grow the field of research in Jewish education through the dissemination of scholarship;To serve as a source of reflection and stimulus for rich and complex views of Jewish education in order to better understand it, to improve its practice, and to contribute to a vibrant Jewish future. Peer Review Policy:All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous review by two referees.Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

Dynamical Systems: An International Journal is published four times a year in print and electronic editions. The primary goal of Dynamical Systems: An International Journal (founded as Dynamics and Stability of Systems) is to act as a forum for communication across all branches of modern dynamical systems, and especially to facilitate interaction between theory and applications. This journal aims to publish high quality research articles in the theory and applications of dynamical systems, especially (but not exclusively) nonlinear systems. Advances in the following topics will be addressed by the journal: * Differential equations * Bifurcation theory * Hamiltonian and Lagrangian dynamics * Hyperbolic dynamics * Ergodic theory * Topological and smooth dynamics * Random dynamical systems * Applications in technology, engineering and natural and life sciences There is no formal page limit and longer manuscripts will be considered; however the Editors intend to offer fast refereeing to short papers (less than 5000 words or 8 typed pages). As the remit of the Journal is fairly wide, authors are requested to present their work in a way that enables a wide audience to understand the context and motivation of the results in their article. Papers should present a major advancement either in the theory or applications of dynamics; articles that are minor improvements of previously published results will not be considered. High quality papers describing the application of the modern theory of dynamics to practical problems in other disciplines and reports of experiments or numerical simulations are also welcome, as long as they clearly illustrate important theoretical issues or highlight deficiencies in the theoretical development of dynamical systems. Contributions of a purely theoretical nature are likewise encouraged, provided that their relevance to applications is clearly described. The Journal also publishes occasional review articles and special issues. Peer Review All published research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by independent expert referees.

Aim The Journal of the Chinese Institute of Engineers (JCIE) is devoted to publishing articles in all aspects of engineering and related fields in applied sciences, ranging from fundamental principles to practical applications. A platform for the timely dissemination of original engineering researches and emerging technologies, the findings and ideas published in this journal are considered to have significant enduring value in the field. JCIE is published eight times a year in January, March, April, June, July, September, October and December, to ensure effective distribution of research results. For years, the journal has brought its readers the latest in technology trends, by the very creators and innovators of these technologies. JCIE has been recognized as one of the leading international journals in its field. Because of our dedication to constant improvement, we aim to extend our reach by establishing relationships with prestigious authors via international conferences, and inviting them to publish with us. To facilitate references of related topics, we also prepare special sections or issues compiled of accepted technical papers, to highlight a particular technology of interest. Scope Encompassing a wide range of engineering disciplines and industrial applications, JCIE includes the following topics: 1. Chemical engineering 2. Civil engineering 3. Computer engineering 4. Electrical engineering 5. Electronics 6. Mechanical engineering and fields related to the above. Peer Review Process As soon as the Editorial Office receives a submitted manuscript, the Editorial office will forward the manuscript to an appropriate Subject Editor based on the paper content and initiate the review process. The Subject Editor examines the submitted paper to determine whether it falls within the scope of JCIE. If it does, the Subject Editor selects a panel of referees to perform the paper's review. Referees are normally asked to respond within four weeks. If they are late, reminders are sent. If the Subject Editor does not receive a timely response from the referee, the manuscript is then sent to an alternative referee. The Subject Editor then evaluates reviews when they come in. If a review is deemed lacking in critical quality (i.e. the technical and scientific strengths or shortcomings of the work have not been adequately addressed), then an additional review is sought. Copies of the reviews (at least two) are referred to the Subject Editor who examines all materials and decides on a course of action. The decision is also checked by the Executive Editor and is then conveyed to the author by the Editorial Office. A ScholarOne Manuscripts™ online submission site is being built for this journal and will go live in 2011. STAR Taylor & Francis/Routledge are committed to the widest possible dissemination of its journals to non-profit institutions in developing countries. Our STAR initiative offers individual researchers in Africa, South Asia and many parts of South East Asia the opportunity to gain one month's free online access to 1,300 Taylor & Francis journals.

For more than a quarter of a century, Radical History Review has stood at the point where rigorous historical scholarship and active political engagement converge. The journal is edited by a collective of historians--men and women with diverse backgrounds, research interests, and professional perspectives. Articles in RHR address issues of gender, race, sexuality, imperialism, and class, stretching the boundaries of historical analysis to explore Western and non-Western histories.
