Journal Guide

Founded in 1968, Review is the major forum in the United States for contemporary Latin American and Caribbean writing in English and English translation; it also covers Canadian writing and the visual and performing arts in the Americas. Review is published by Routledge. in association with the Americas Society, a national, not-for-profit institution that promotes understanding in the United States of the political, economic, and cultural issues that define and challenge the Americas today.Review first brought the work of Latin American writers such as Alejo Carpentier, Gabriel Garc237;a M225;rquez, and Mario Vargas Llosa to critical attention in the United States, and they were followed by numerous other important figures. Translators Edith Grossman, Gregory Rabassa, and Margaret Sayers Peden are among those who have contributed to Review. Issues of the magazine are developed from the Americas Society's literature programs, which often focus on specific countries, regions, or on more abstract themes such as urban voices, women's writing, or Latin American/Latino performing arts. Review has regularly included selections of poetry, fiction, and nonfiction; book reviews of newly translated titles; profiles of visual artists; and essays exploring currents in music and the performing arts.Review has undergone various transformations, in response to cultural and economic currents over the last 36 years. Founded in 1968 as a compilation of previously published reviews of titles by Latin American authors, in the 1970s it turned to publishing special-focus issues on individual Latin American writers, including Borges, Neruda, and Paz. In the 1980s, Review was reconfigured as a high-design publication with substantial coverage of the visual and performing arts, broadening its scope to attract a more general readership. This trend continued into the 1990s when the magazine began publishing more literature and arts from the non-Spanish-speaking Caribbean. And in 2003, the magazine's title was changed from Review: Latin American Literature and Arts to its current one, acknowledging the true mandate of both the magazine and the Americas Society.Since Review 68 (pan-Caribbean writing and arts, June 2004), Review has included scholarly research articles in addition to its regular content, and has been published online as well as in a print edition. These developments have expanded the journal's editorial scope and helped Review reach the greatest possible number of scholars and students of Latin American, Caribbean, and comparative literatures as well as general readers across the globe.Submissions are generally by invitation. All submitted research articles are peer-reviewed.

Public Management Review seeks to: * explore the developing field of public management * embrace research both about the strategic and operational management of public services and about social/public policy development and implementation * encourage in particular work which either presents new empirical knowledge about public management and/or developed theory * encourage questioning both of the legitimacy and hegemony of the 'new public management' paradigm and its alternatives, and of the developing pluralism in public management which encompasses the governance of inter-sectoral relationships between government, non-profit and for-profit organisations in the provision of public services. The remit of Public Management Review is to promote the dissemination and discussion of such research about public management. Its specific target audience is the academic and research community. Public Management Review is an international journal, seeking to draw together and learn lessons from the development of public management across the world rather than being parochially focused upon one area and encourages cross-national and comparative research papers. The journal promotes inter-disciplinary work. Much of the most important work about public management is coming at the cusp of traditional disciplines. Public Management Review promotes such cross-boundary learning and conceptualisation. This journal is uniquely placed to offer a leading light on the rapidly developing interest in public management across the world, and especially in Europe, North America and the Pacific Rim. It covers such key issues as: * social policy making and implementation in the plural state * inter-sectoral (government non-profit-for profit) relationships * the evaluation and critique of the 'new public management' paradigm * governance institutions and processes * globalization and convergence in public management * state reform and structural adjustment, and the operational/ strategic management of public service organisations, including such issues as contracting, marketing and strategic management.

The Communication Review seeks a synthesis of concerns traditional to the fields of communication and media studies. The journal's heuristic division of the field into three analytical perspectives provides a natural structure for creating new knowledge across conventional disciplinary boundaries:Communication and Culture, probing the questions of producing meaning and interpretation by way of analyzing culture through the visual and dramatic arts, literature, sociology, anthropology, and in the interdisciplinary tradition of cultural studies.Communication as a Social Force, focusing on the historical development and contemporary transformation of media and communication, telecommunications, and information systems, emphasizing their political-economic, technological, and institutional dynamics.Communication and Mind, examining the individual socially constituted through language and other media in their cultural, social, and economic contexts.The editors view these as different theoretical perspectives on the study of communication processes. They particularly encourage historical work, feminist work, and visual work, and invite submissions from those employing critical theoretical and empirical approaches to a range of topics under the general rubric of communication and media studies research.The Communication Review also functions as a review of current work in the field. Towards this end, the editors are always open to proposals for special issues that interrogate and examine current controversies in the field. We also welcome non-traditionally constructed articles which critically examine and review current sub-fields of and controversies within communication and media studies; we offer an expedited review process for timely statements. In addition, we welcome book reviews and extended review essays.Peer Review Policy:All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by two anonymous referees.Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.

Environmental Impact Assessment Review is a refereed, interdisciplinary journal serving a global audience of practitioners, policy-makers and academics. This audience assesses the environmental impact of policy, projects, processes and products and makes decisions based upon these assessments.Innovative EIA theory and practice - that is the focus of this journal. Papers should present innovation, they should be topical and of course coherent. A focus on theory and practice means we are focused on concepts, methods, techniques, approaches and systems.We are not a journal for case studies as such. Case studies are welcome if they explicitly demonstrate innovative theory or practice, but only in that context. You may have done the world's most thorough impact assessment of a power plant, dam, refinery, whatever, but if there was no innovation in the theory or practice of EIA involved, please submit your paper somewhere else.The topical focus of EIA Review is meant to mirror the interests of its audience. As currently defined, this is:• EIA Procedure: theory, methods, legislation and practice• Quantitative Methods: forecasting, risk/health assessments and eco-indicators, among others• Carbon footprinting• Health Impact Assessment• Social Impact Assessment• LCA and Product PolicyEach issue of the journal may contain up to three sections:Viewpoint — an opinion on a relevant issueArticles — on the topics listed aboveReviews of Current LiteratureEIA Review aims to publish only pieces that are innovative, topical and coherent. Submissions to the journal are judged on these criteria by the editor, in consultation with a policy committee, an advisory board and other independent experts. All articles go through a blind peer-review prior to acceptance. For the 12 months ending in December 2013, the average time between submission of a paper and an initial decision was 44 days.The journal is indexed in the Social Sciences Citation Index, and its latest impact factor may be found at http://www.journals.elsevier.com/environmental-impact-assessment-review/.
