Call for Publications Publication: Journal of International and Global Studies Date: Vo. 5, No. 1 (2013) Deadline: 15.8.2013 __________________________________________________ We invite you to submit your essay dealing with globalization issues (broadly defined) to the Journal of International and Global Studies: http://www.lindenwood.edu/jigs/ The Journal of International and Global Studies provides a peer reviewed multidisciplinary forum for the critical discussion of and reflections on the consequences of globalization throughout the world. The editors welcome essays that deal with globalization from economists, historians, political scientists, anthropologists, sociologists, geographers, linguists, religious, ethnic, or environmental studies specialists, cross-cultural education, media and communication researchers, or other humanities or social science scholars that have an international and global focus. One of our goals is to help undermine the fragmentation of specialization within the international academy by emphasizing broad interdisciplinary approaches to the comprehension of globalization in all of its many different forms and implications for different regions of the world. Specifically, the journal seeks: - Studies that critically examine (i.e., not just describe) global content, ideas, organizations, policies, or practices - Studies that situate phenomena within their local, national, regional, or global context - Studies that consider international and global phenomena historically and in the present - Studies that are explicitly based in conceptual frameworks, representing one or more established, emerging, or grounded paradigms - Studies that are based upon qualitative data, quantitative data, policy documents or other texts from existing scholarship - Studies that explore major international and global issues Materials submitted to the JIGS are peer reviewed on the following criteria: (1) use of a theoretical or conceptual framework, (2) acknowledgment of relevant literature, (3) originality in analysis, (4) appropriateness of methodological approach, (5) contribution to the advancement of knowledge, (6) use of a global perspective, and (7) clarity of expression. The deadline for submission of essays is August 15, 2013.
