Journal Guide

World Development Perspectives is a multi-disciplinary journal of international development. It seeks to explore ways of improving human well-being by examining the performance and impact of interventions designed to address issues related to: poverty alleviation, public health and malnutrition, agricultural production, natural resource governance, globalization and transnational processes, technological progress, gender and social discrimination, and participation in economic and political life. Above all, we are particularly interested in the role of historical, legal, social, economic, political, biophysical, and/or ecological contexts in shaping development processes and outcomes.

We welcome contributions that offer constructive ideas and analysis, and highlight the lessons to be learned from the experiences of different nations, societies, and economies. World Development Perspectives recognizes 'development' as a process of change at and across multiple scales, involving a diverse range of actors at each scale. Keeping in mind this diversity, our objective is to build a rigorous understanding of the interactions between the relevant contextual factors and specific development interventions in explaining development outcomes. We aspire to create a forum that brings together development researchers, practitioners, and administrators from all domains, disciplines, and geographies.

The Law Teacher is a fully-refereed journal concerned with legal education at all academic levels. Whilst it is the journal of the UK-based Association of Law Teachers, both the Association and the journal are international in outlook and contributions from any jurisdiction are welcome in any section of the journal. The journal is produced in three issues annually. One of these issues is normally organised around a special theme. Subject-matterThe Law Teacher will reflect the interest in legal education at all levels and in any jurisdiction held by members of the Association of Law Teachers and its other subscribers. The normal structure of each issue provides for four discrete sections: Articles Policy and Education Developments Recent Legal Developments Book Reviews. 1. Articles should generally address issues of legal education rather than substantive law as such. What falls within the concept of 8216;legal education' will be broadly interpreted, and could include any issues which will be of interest to law teachers. The journal is particularly interested in reporting pedagogical developments, properly grounded in theory and effectively researched and analysed and the results of empirical research into matters of concern to law teachers. Articles will typically be of a length of some 5,000 words, although considerable flexibility will be permitted.2. Policy and Education Developments will include shorter pieces focused on policy and education issues likely to be of interest to the readership of the journal. In general, authors should provide an informed overview of their topic, providing the reader with an understanding of the relevance of the issue to legal education. Authors are encouraged to draw upon their own practice and experience where relevant and to explore the implications for legal education suggested by their analysis of the topic.3. Recent Legal Developments will address changes in substantive and adjectival law, with a particular focus on areas likely to be of interest to a wide range of law teachers. Thus, a concentration on 8216;core' areas may be expected, but this will not be the exclusive focus. Articles for this section will typically be 2-3,000 words in length, although some flexibility will be permitted.4. Book Reviews will focus on books and other materials of interest to those teaching the law and address their practical value in working with students on different types of course. Reviewers are encouraged to introduce a comparative element to their reviews where competing texts are considered.Peer ReviewThe Law Teacher operates a policy of peer review in respect of pieces submitted for the 8216;Articles' and 8216;Recent Legal Developments' sections of the journal. The normal process involves articles initially being read by the General Editor and, if potentially appropriate for the journal, anonymised and sent out to experts in the field who are asked to review them for publishability. Two reviewers are normally sought and will remain anonymous. Where potentially publishable, reviewers are asked to make recommendations for amendment or improvement of the draft work. The Editor will take a final decision as to publication on the basis of reviewers' recommendations. Where significant change or development of an article is proposed, the revised version may be submitted to reviewers again before a final decision on publication is taken.An exception to the practice of peer review may arise where a specific article has been commissioned or where it is the published version of a formal lecture organised by the Association of Law Teachers, such as the Annual Lord Upjohn Lecture.

Jung Journal: Culture & Psyche is an international quarterly published by the C.G. Jung Institute of San Francisco, one of the oldest institutions in America dedicated to Jungian studies and analytic training. Founded in 1979 by John Beebe under the title The San Francisco Jung Institute Library Journal, Jung Journal has evolved from a local journal of book and film reviews to one that attracts readers and contributors worldwide--from the Academy, the arts, and from Jungian analyst-scholars. Featuring peer-reviewed scholarly articles, poetry, art, book and film reviews, and obituaries, Jung Journal offers a dialogue between culture--as reflected in art, literature, science, and world events--and contemporary Jungian views of the dynamic relationship between the cultural and personal aspects of the human psyche.

The aim of the Journal of Literary Semantics is to concentrate the endeavors of theoretical linguistics upon those texts traditionally classed as "literary", in the belief that such texts are a central, not a peripheral, concern of linguistics.The Journal of Literary Semantics, founded by Trevor Eaton in 1972 and edited by him for thirty years, has pioneered and encouraged research into the relations between linguistics and literature. It is widely read by theoretical and applied linguists, narratologists, poeticians, philosophers and psycholinguists. JLS publishes articles on all aspects of literary semantics. The ambit is inclusive rather than doctrinaire. The journal publishes articles of a philosophical or theoretical nature that attempt to advance our understanding of the structures, dynamics, and significations of literary texts. This includes articles that relate the study of literature to other disciplines such as psychology, neurophysiology, mathematics, and history, as well as articles dealing with the educational problems inherent in the study of literature.Journal of Literary Semantics is a peer-reviewed journal of international scope.

Terminology is an independent journal with a cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary scope. It focusses on the discussion of (systematic) solutions not only of language problems encountered in translation, but also, for example, of (monolingual) problems of ambiguity, reference and developments in multidisciplinary communication. Particular attention will be given to new and developing subject areas such as knowledge representation and transfer, information technology tools, expert systems and terminological databases. Terminology encompasses terminology both in general (theory and practice) and in specialized fields (LSP), such as physics; biomedical sciences; technology; engineering; humanities; management; law; arts; business administration; trade; corporate identity; economics; methodology; and any other area in which terminology is essential to improve communication.

Expanded Routledge Psychoanalysis Coverage in PEP Now published six times a year, Psychoanalytic Inquiry (PI) retains distinction in the world of clinical publishing as a genuinely monographic journal.

2009 Impact Factor - 0.311.Five Year Impact Factor - 0.340.169;2010 Thomson Reuters, 2009 Journal Citation Reports174;Aquatic Insects is an international journal publishing original research on both the systematics and the ecology of aquatic insects. Taxonomically, aquatic insects are a heterogeneous assemblage, comprising several orders which have evolved in aquatic habitats. Further, the bugs, beetles and flies each include many large families present only in aquatic habitats. In fact, almost every insect order has at least a few aquatic representatives. The shared habitat unifying the different groups of aquatic insects brings the journal into close contact with the field of limnology. In all kinds of freshwater environments, aquatic insects are usually the largest single group of organisms, by species as well as specimen numbers, and are of paramount importance to the community structure and function. Since a large number of aquatic insect species are ecological indicators, articles in this entomological journal are also of direct relevance to all students of aquatic ecosystems. The journal publishes original research on systematics and ecology of aquatic insects. Descriptions of individual species without general interest to an international readership are only accepted if space permits. Descriptions based on single specimens are discouraged. Purely faunistic studies and other papers of only regional interest are not considered.All published research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by independent expert referees.ReadershipEntomologists, taxonomists, ecologists, limnologists, and fishery biologists.---Disclaimer for Scientific, Technical and Social Science PublicationsTaylor & Francis make every effort to ensure the accuracy of all the information (the 8220;Content8221;) contained in its publications.

Mathematics is pervading every study and technique in our modern world, bringing ever more sharply into focus the responsibilities laid upon those whose task it is to teach it. Most prominent among these is the difficulty of presenting an interdisciplinary approach so that one professional group may benefit from the experience of others. The International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology provides a medium by which a wide range of experience in mathematical education can be presented, assimilated and eventually adapted to everyday needs in schools, colleges, polytechnics, universities, industry and commerce. Contributions will be welcomed from lecturers, teachers and users of mathematics at all levels on the contents of syllabuses and methods of presentation. Increasing use of technology is being made in the teaching, learning, assessment and presentation of mathematics today; original and interesting contributions in this rapidly developing area will be especially welcome. Mathematical models arising from real situations, the use of computers, new teaching aids and techniques also form an important feature. Discussion will be encouraged on methods of widening applications throughout science and technology. The need for communication between teacher and user will be emphasized and reports of relevant conferences and meetings will be included. A novel feature of the journal is the Classroom Notes section. This section is for shorter articles, which are often just new ideas for the mathematics teacher to use in teaching.
