Journal Guide

Marriage & Family Review publishes a mix of open submission articles as well as thematic issues that bring together the most current research, practice, advances in theory development, and applications of knowledge on a particular topic in the field. Marriage & Family Review has historically welcomed open submissions from numerous international scholars and will continue to do so. The journal will continue to welcome manuscripts that concern family strengths and premarital relationship development. Another continued emphasis will be research-based manuscripts concerning controversial issues. Marriage & Family Review is also interested in manuscripts that present evidence for the reliability and validity of new measurement instruments in family studies or review such evidence for older measures. Also of interest would be scholarly manuscripts that discuss newer, high risk methodologies that may be applicable to family theory testing and data analysis. A new aim of Marriage & Family Review will be the publication of reviews of the literature of an intermediate level. For example, Journal of Marriage and Family regularly publishes "Decade in Review" articles that summarize the previous decade's research in a major area of research (e.g., marital interaction). Marriage & Family Review wishes to complement such reviews by focusing on reviews that concern the previous five to twenty years of research in a more concentrated area of study (e.g., marital interaction among military couples). At least one issue a year will be dedicated to such reviews. Doctoral candidates in particular may wish to consider Marriage & Family Review as a professional outlet for their literature review work. A new focus for Marriage & Family Review also will be brief commentaries on previously published articles, with priority given to articles previously published in Marriage & Family Review, then articles published in other major family journals that do not accept such commentaries or feedback, and lastly, commentaries that, although being theoretically and methodologically sound, have been rejected by major family journals. Rebuttals to any such comments will also be welcomed enthusiastically. Family scholars are invited to suggest particular thematic special issues for the journal's consideration, including guest editors for those special issues. Scholars who would like to review submissions to Marriage & Family Review are invited to submit their names, contact information, areas of interest and expertise, and current vitae to the Editor for consideration for both regular and special issues. Peer Review: All regular articles, reviews, and brief reports published in Marriage and Family Review have undergone editorial screening and peer review from at least two qualified academic scholars.Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

Established in 1930, the Nordic Journal of International Law has remained the principal forum in the Nordic countries for the scholarly exchange on legal development in the international and European domains.

The Oxford Review of Education is a well established journal with an extensive international readership. It is committed to deploying the resources of a wide range of academic disciplines in the service of educational scholarship, and the Editors welcome articles reporting significant new research as well as contributions of a more analytic or reflective nature. The membership of the editorial board reflects these emphases, which have remained characteristic of the Review since its foundation. The Review seeks to preserve the highest standards of professional scholarship in education, while also seeking to publish articles which will be of interest and utility to a wider public, including policy makers. Partly for that reason it dedicates a considerable number of its issues, normally two each year, to special topics; for such issues a guest editor is often invited and contributions are sought from acknowledged experts in the field under review. Papers submitted to the Oxford Review of Education are read by two referees whose comments guide the Editors towards their final decision. The editorial board meets twice a year and takes responsibility for the general development of the Journal. Peer Review Policy: All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two anonymous referees.

The International Review of Intellectual Property and Competition Law (IIC), tracks worldwide developments in intellectual property and competition law, presenting the finest academic research in these fields from a European legal perspective.  Our scholarly emphasis concentrates on disseminating and expanding upon the European approach to law. Our goal is to set ourselves apart from other (esp. several US) publications. To this end we focus on two specific aims:(1)   The most significant legal developments from around the world (including, in particular, Asia), are taken up and considered within the European context. These developments are presented in a manner that is understandable not only to a European audience, but also to US and Japanese readers.(2)   Current legal developments occurring in Europe are examined in such a way that the non-European reader can appreciate their significance.IIC offers a platform for opposing ideas, providing for rich debate on a host of current IP and competition law topics.The value of IIC for European specialists, going beyond other “European” journals, rests in our treatment of non-European topics combined with our illuminating analyses of European legal developments as seen within a global legal context.For non-European specialists, IIC is the medium of choice as it explores developments extending beyond strictly European legal issues (i.e. developments in Asia, India, the Near East, Africa, Latin and North America), while at the same time conveying a European viewpoint on these events. In this respect, the target readership comprises those (including Americans and Asians) interested in more than merely legal developments in the USA.We make no compromises with regard to the scholarly nature of the journal. This commitment is the aspect that separates IIC from a host of other journals on the topic. However, the communication of our content consistently maintains a, reference to practice. Thus, it is not the average lawyer who is targeted, but the specialist who has an interest in scholarly debate.IIC’s central feature is high-quality articles with a firm theoretical foundation submitted from experts around the world. IIC also prints reports and opinions on IP and competition law events and issues occurring around the globe. In addition, we translate and publish the most important decisions from jurisdictions worldwide (including non-mainstream jurisdictions), providing our readers with a unique service found almost nowhere else.Finally, IIC looks back on a more than 40-year history of publication. Each volume builds on this tradition of academic excellence. Our established foundation provides a unique basis upon which our readers are able to research and explore coming developments in IP and competition law in the decades to come.

Cambridge Forum on AI: Law and Governance publishes content focused on the governance of artificial intelligence (AI) from law, rules, and regulation through to ethical behaviour, accountability and responsible practice. It also looks at the impact on society of such governance along with how AI can be used responsibly to benefit the legal, corporate and other sectors.

Following the emergence of generative AI and broader general purpose AI models, there is a pressing need to clarify the role of governance, to consider the mechanisms for oversight and regulation of AI, and to discuss the interrelationships and shifting tensions between the legal and regulatory landscape, ethical implications and evolving technologies. Cambridge Forum on AI: Law and Governance uses themed issues to bring together voices from law, business, applied ethics, computer science and many other disciplines to explore the social, ethical and legal impact of AI, data science, and robotics and the governance frameworks they require.

Cambridge Forum on AI: Law and Governance is part of the Cambridge Forum journal series, which progresses cross-disciplinary conversations on issues of global importance.

International Review of Sociology is the oldest journal in the field of sociology, founded in 1893 by Ren233; Worms. Now the property of Rome University, its direction has been entrusted to the Faculty of Statistics.This choice is a deliberate one and falls into line with the traditional orientation of the journal as well as of the Institut International de Sociologie. The latter was the world's first international academic organisation of sociology which started as an association of contributors to International Review of Sociology.Entrusting the journal to the Faculty of Statistics reinforces the view that sociology is not conceived apart from economics, history, demography, anthropology and social psychology. Rather, sociology is a science which aims to discover the links between the various areas of social activity and not just a set of empty formulas. Thus, International Review of Sociology provides a medium through which up-to-date results of interdisciplinary research can be spread across disciplines as well as across continents and cultures.Peer Review Policy:All review papers in this journal have undergone editorial screening and peer review.
