Societies with Borders: Human Rights & the Social Sciences
International Journal
Edited by Judith Blau and Alberto Moncada

__________________________________________________


The journal "Societies with Borders: Human Rights & the
Social Sciences" will publish 3 issues per year beginning
February 2009. The journal is posted on the Brill website:
http://www.brill.nl/swb and on the web page of:
http://www.sociologistswithoutborders.org/

What the world’s peoples have in common – notwithstanding
the borders that divide them – is the aspiration to achieve
human rights – the rights to food, housing, health care,
education, decent work, free speech, to speak one’s
conscience, as well as the right to a fair trial, to a safe
environment, and the right to peace. What the world’s people
are beginning to discover is that this aspiration is not
only a common one, but it can only be pursued collectively
in disregard of the borders that divide people. People may
live in societies, derive their identities from their
societies, but the pursuit of human rights is pursued and
coordinated across borders. The journal, Societies without
Borders, aims for high caliber scholarly analysis and also
encourages submissions that address pioneering thought in
human rights, globalism, and collective goods.

Authors are cordially invited to submit articles to the
journal editors Judith Blau and Alberto Moncada, and books
for review to the Associate Editor Keri Iyall Smith.
