An ever changing global system defines the scientific and social problems and issues of our time. The majority of these problems clearly cross traditional scientific boundaries.The objective of the journal Global and Planetary Change is to achieve a multidisciplinary view of the causes, processes and limits of variability in planetary change. The journal focuses on the record of change in earth history and the analysis and prediction of recent and future changes. Topics include, but are not limited to, changes in the chemical composition of the oceans and atmosphere, climate change, sea level variations, human geography, global geophysics and tectonics, global ecology and biogeography.Key criteria for manuscripts are global scope or implications for global scale problems, significance beyond a single discipline and a focus on the causes, processes and limits of planetary change. Manuscripts can be submitted as either research contributions or as review articles. Extra effort should be directed towards presenting problems and results for a broad readership. Part of the intent of Global and Planetary Change is for new discoveries or progress in one discipline to foster advances, or act as a catalyst, in understanding the earth as a system.Benefits to authorsWe also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

Globalisation, Societies and Education aims to fill the gap between the study of education and broader social, economic and political forces by analysing the complexities of globalisation. The journal seeks to provide means for affecting, as well as reflecting the experiences, distribution, contributions and outcomes of education at all levels and in all settings.Globalisation, Societies and Education represents scholarly analysis carried out from a variety of disciplinary perspectives, including sociology, philosophy, politics, geography, history, economics, management and comparative studies as applied to education and its related fields. We welcome articles drawing on empirical research, comparative and single system case studies and theoretical explorations in the broad area of the relationships between globalisation, societies and education.In addition, Globalisation, Societies and Education seeks to encourage and include more innovative means for communicating information, ideas, debates and arguments on globalisation, education and societies. The journal will include interviews with prominent intellectuals, activists and leaders, website reviews, commentaries on debates and will offer opportunities for the expression of a range of viewpoints.Topics of particular interest to the journal will include:the effects of globalisation on education and training in particular countries, regions and institutions; the subjects of these processes, including global (e.g. World Bank, OECD, UNESCO) and regional organisations (e.g. EU, APEC, NAFTA), and NGOs; new technologies, new modes of e-learning and new identities; globalisation, education and 'development' globalisation and languages; lifelong learning and the knowledge economy; globalisation, education and cultural change; changing labour markets, labour mobility, skills and education; migration flows and education; new institutional forms; education as a global commodity/service; social movements, labour movements and strategies for change.
