Créée par Henri Berr en 1900, La Revue de synthèse accueille des travaux d'histoire intellectuelle, d'épistémologie, de philosophie, de sociologie, d'histoire économique, sociale et culturelle. Elle a la vocation d'animer les réflexions situées au carrefour entre la philosophie, l'histoire des sciences et l'histoire générale en encourageant les recherches et les échanges sur les questions touchant aux fondements des sciences sociales, aux renouvellements de l'enquête sur les sciences, aux développements des voies nouvelles propres à l'histoire intellectuelle.
La Revue de synthèse se consacre donc à l'histoire du travail intellectuel. Elle contribue à éclairer les critères de scientificité des sciences sociales. Elle occupe à ce titre une place originale dans l'ensemble des publications internationales. Elle maintient cette exigence de qualité par une sévère sélection des articles qui lui sont proposés.The Revue de synthèse was created by Henri Berr in 1900. The journal welcomes pieces that deal with intellectual history, epistemology, philosophy, sociology, and economic, social and cultural history. Its goal is to serve as a forum for discussions taking place at the crossroads between philosophy, the history of science and general history by encouraging research and exchanges on issues concerning the foundations of social sciences, changes in scientific investigation and the development of new approaches specific to intellectual history.
The Revue de synthèse studies the historically dated cognitive activity of scientists, philosophers and scholars. It looks to shed light on the scientific claims of the social sciences. In this regards, it stands out from other international publications. It maintains this quality requirement by severe selection of submitted articles., .

This radical interdisciplinary journal of theory and politics continues to be one of the most exciting and influential resources for scholars in the social sciences worldwide.

Computational & Mathematical Organization Theory has been accepted for Social Sciences Citation Index, Science Citation Index Expanded, and Current Contents/Social & Behavioral Sciences, and will first appear with an Impact Factor in the Journal Citation Reports 2010, published in 2011. Computational & Mathematical Organization Theory provides an international forum for interdisciplinary research that combines computation, organizations and society. The goal is to advance the state of science in formal reasoning, analysis, and system building drawing on and encouraging advances in areas at the confluence of social networks, artificial intelligence, complexity, machine learning, sociology, business, political science, economics, and operations research. The papers in this journal will lead to the development of newtheories that explain and predict the behaviour of complex adaptive systems, new computational models and technologies that are responsible to society, business, policy, and law, new methods for inte

The Journal for the History of Knowledge is an open access, peer-reviewed journal devoted to the history of knowledge in its broadest sense. This includes the study of science, but also of indigenous, artisanal, and other types of knowledge as well as the history of knowledge developed in the humanities and social sciences. Special attention is paid to interactions and processes of demarcation between science and other forms of knowledge. Contributions may deal with the history of concepts of knowledge, the study of knowledge making practices and institutions and sites of knowledge production, adjudication, and legitimation (including universities). Contributions which highlight the relevance of the history of knowledge to current policy concerns (for example, by historicizing and problematizing concepts such as the "knowledge society") are particularly welcome.

JHoK is affiliated with Gewina, the Belgian-Dutch Society for History of Science and Universities. It is supported by the Descartes Centre for the History and Philosophy of the Sciences and the Humanities, Huygens Institute of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences, the Vossius Centre for the History of Humanities and Sciences, and the Stevin Centre for History of Science and Humanities.

The journal is explicitly global in scope. It offers a platform for publications that concern western and non-western cases, that compare western and non-western knowledge making practices or that show the connections between concepts and practices of knowledge in different parts of the globe.

Its time-span is antiquity to the present.

The premier review journal in biology, The Quarterly Review of Biology has since 1926 presented insightful historical, philosophical, and technical treatments of important biological topics. The QRB publishes outstanding review articles of generous length that are guided by an expansive, inclusive, and often humanistic understanding of biology. Beyond the core biological sciences, the QRB is also an important review journal for scholars in related areas, which include policy studies and the history and philosophy of science. A comprehensive section of reviews on new biological books provides educators and researchers alike with information on the latest publications in the life sciences.

The Journal of the History of Biology is devoted to the history of the biological sciences, with additional interest and concern in philosophical and social issues confronting biology. While all historical epochs are touched upon, the journal pays particular attention to developments during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The journal serves both the working biologist who needs a full understanding to the historical and philosophical bases of the field and the historian of biology interested in following developments in the biological sciences.
