Terminology is an independent journal with a cross-cultural and cross-disciplinary scope. It focusses on the discussion of (systematic) solutions not only of language problems encountered in translation, but also, for example, of (monolingual) problems of ambiguity, reference and developments in multidisciplinary communication. Particular attention will be given to new and developing subject areas such as knowledge representation and transfer, information technology tools, expert systems and terminological databases. Terminology encompasses terminology both in general (theory and practice) and in specialized fields (LSP), such as physics; biomedical sciences; technology; engineering; humanities; management; law; arts; business administration; trade; corporate identity; economics; methodology; and any other area in which terminology is essential to improve communication.
Editor: Srikant Sarangi IMPACT FACTOR 2010: 0.493 5-year IMPACT FACTOR: 0.664 ERIH category INT1 "Text & Talk" (founded as TEXT in 1981) is an internationally recognized forum for interdisciplinary research in language, discourse, and communication studies, focusing, among other things, on the situational and historical nature of text/talk production; the cognitive and sociocultural processes of language practice/action; and participant-based structures of meaning negotiation and multimodal alignment. "Text & Talk" encourages critical debates on these and other relevant issues, spanning not only the theoretical and methodological dimensions of discourse but also their practical and socially relevant outcomes. "Text & Talk" - encourages the dissemination of scholarly work in all aspects of language and communication research, especially in under-represented domains (e.g., communication science, artificial intelligence, professional communication, rhetoric and composition, stylistics, narratives, institutional ethnography, sociology of science); - systematically reviews from time to time via position papers and state-of-the-art articles the major conceptual and analytic developments in language and communication research; - challenges through critique and debate the tenets of discourse research across disciplinary boundaries, in terms of theoretical and methodological insights as well as practical outcomes; - remains independent of any individual or group ideology, while encouraging in equal measure the use of discourse to challenge discourse orthodoxy. "Text & Talk" is a double-blind peer-reviewed journal of international scope.

The Communication Review seeks a synthesis of concerns traditional to the fields of communication and media studies. The journal's heuristic division of the field into three analytical perspectives provides a natural structure for creating new knowledge across conventional disciplinary boundaries:Communication and Culture, probing the questions of producing meaning and interpretation by way of analyzing culture through the visual and dramatic arts, literature, sociology, anthropology, and in the interdisciplinary tradition of cultural studies.Communication as a Social Force, focusing on the historical development and contemporary transformation of media and communication, telecommunications, and information systems, emphasizing their political-economic, technological, and institutional dynamics.Communication and Mind, examining the individual socially constituted through language and other media in their cultural, social, and economic contexts.The editors view these as different theoretical perspectives on the study of communication processes. They particularly encourage historical work, feminist work, and visual work, and invite submissions from those employing critical theoretical and empirical approaches to a range of topics under the general rubric of communication and media studies research.The Communication Review also functions as a review of current work in the field. Towards this end, the editors are always open to proposals for special issues that interrogate and examine current controversies in the field. We also welcome non-traditionally constructed articles which critically examine and review current sub-fields of and controversies within communication and media studies; we offer an expedited review process for timely statements. In addition, we welcome book reviews and extended review essays.Peer Review Policy:All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymous refereeing by two anonymous referees.Publication office: Taylor & Francis, Inc., 325 Chestnut Street, Suite 800, Philadelphia, PA 19106.
