Terrorism and Political Violence reflects the full range of current scholarly work from many disciplines and theoretical perspectives. It aims to give academic rigour to a field which hitherto has lacked it, and encourages comparative studies. In addition to focusing on the political meaning of terrorist activity, the journal publishes studies of various related forms of violence by rebels and by states, on the links between political violence and organized crime, protest, rebellion, revolution, and human rights. Symposia are a regular feature covering such subjects as: terrorism and public policy; religion and violence; political parties and terrorism; technology and terrorism; and right-wing terrorism. A truly interdisciplinary journal, it is essential reading for all academics, decision makers and security specialists concerned with understanding political violence. Peer Review Policy: All submitted papers to this journal have undergone initial screening and then subjected to peer screening from two or more referees.

Since 1889, The American Academy of Political and Social Science has served as a forum for the free exchange of ideas among the well informed and intellectually curious. In this era of specialization, few scholarly periodicals cover the scope of societies and politics like The ANNALS . Each volume is guest edited by outstanding scholars and experts in the topics studied and presents more than 200 pages of timely, in-depth research on a significant topic of concern.
The American Journal of Economics and Sociology (AJES) was founded in 1941, with support from the Robert Schalkenbach Foundation, to provide a forum for continuing discussion of issues raised and emphasized by the American political economist, social philosopher, and activist, Henry George (1839-1897). The peer-reviewed AJES welcomes any submission that critically investigates the social provisioning process utilizing different theoretical and methodological approaches; that engages in critical analysis and empirical studies of current social-economic micro and macro policies affecting the social provisioning process; and that evaluates past and current intellectual arguments and disciplinary developments primarily in economics and sociology (but also in the related disciplines of anthropology, political science, and law) which had or currently have an impact on understanding and investigating the social provisioning process. Articles that offer an interdisciplinary perspective are encouraged. For policy-oriented articles, it is appropriate and encouraged to discuss the public policy implications (if any) of the findings.The AJES also has a 'Comment and Analysis' feature that allows scholars to 'sound off' about events so long as the ideas are presented in a logical and coherent framework, references are provided, and the whole project amounts to an interesting essay in persuasion presented in a mature professional way.Each year AJES issues a special supplementary issue to all subscribers containing an important and interesting monograph in an ongoing series entitled Studies in Social Reform and Economic Justice. In addition, each year there may be one issue is entirely devoted to an important thematic topic and scholars are invited to contribute from all around the world.
The American Sociologist publishes papers, comments, and other writings on topics of professional and disciplinary concern to sociologists. The editors seem papers that examine the intellectual, practical, and ethical issues that affect the work, careers, and perspectives of sociologists. In addition, the editors especially encourage research and reporting on the ways in which sociological knowledge and skill relate to issues of broad public concern, past, present, and future. Topics might include: the uses of sociology in academic and nonacademic settings: the training, placement, and career paths of sociologist: structural and ideological dimensions that affect the development of new perspectives in the discipline: the ethics of research, teaching, and practice: the application of sociological knowledge and methods in practical problems, the historical and interdisciplinary roots of sociological knowledge: and the contribution of sociologists to professional and public issues.
Launched in the USA in 1969 The Black Scholar (TBS) is the first modern black studies and research journal. It was founded on the premise that black writers, scholars, activists and artists could participate in dialogue within its pages. TBS' primary mission has been to chronicle, analyze and debate the conditions of and the emancipatory efforts by black people, against a multitude of oppressions that include and cross class, nationality, gender, generation, sexuality, and ideology. Due in part to the impact of the journal, Black Studies, Africana Studies, Diaspora Studies and other sub-disciplines have become legitimate spaces of scholarly inquiry. However there are few public intellectual spaces that focus on black thought, are dedicated to the new multiplicity of black perspectives (or perspectives on race) that have emerged through these disciplines, and engage with the new issues and concerns facing black communities worldwide. The Black Scholar is one of those spaces. Also, our rich mix of the scholarly and the artistic, the professional and the public/non-specialist, remains rare, as is our openness to different forms and techniques of political engagement.
Building on the journal’s initial vision, TBS aims to not only “unite the academy and the street” but also participate in a global black intellectual and cultural world that has multiple contexts and a range of materials and opinions far greater than when the journal was founded. The journal continues to engage and cultivate differential black political conversations and cultural interests (African American, African, European, Latin American, for example) while maintaining its core commitment to tough minded thinking and an overall liberationist intent. This means that we welcome submissions (in English and in translation) from anywhere in the world as long as they meet the criteria articulated on our website or in the journal.
Though TBS has always engaged issues of gender, a greater focus on sexuality is a part of our reimagining; and though the journal has always focused on race, class, power and culture, such debates have to be rendered contemporary. Of particular interest are submissions about the prison industrial complex, the current, often violent re-organization of the African continent, emerging sites and forms of struggle, new forms of popular culture and art throughout the black Diaspora, new migratory patterns, technology and social media, generational differences and sometimes quite radical distinctions in opinion and ideology. All disciplines and fields are welcome as long as they appreciate the unique opportunity the journal offers - to speak to others outside one’s area. But perhaps most important, we imagine ourselves as the forum for ideas and conversations that have yet to emerge.
All research articles in the journal will undergo a rigorous peer review based on initial editor evaluation and then at least two anonymous referees. Creative or public pieces will also undergo a rigorous evaluation, but by members of our intellectual community whose work and interests are comparable to those of the work submitted.For 60 years The British Journal of Sociology has represented the mainstream of sociological thinking and research.
