5 Year impact factor: 2.3
Impact factor: 2.3

Explorations in Economic History provides broad coverage of the application of economic analysis to historical episodes. The journal has a tradition of innovative applications of theory and quantitative techniques, and it explores all aspects of economic change, all historical periods, all geographical locations, and all political and social systems. The journal includes papers by economists, economic historians, demographers, geographers, and sociologists. Explorations in Economic History is the only journal where you will find "Surveys and Speculations". This unique department alerts economic historians to the potential in a new area of research, surveying the recent literature and then identifying the most promising issues to pursue. Research areas include: • Agriculture • Economic demography • Government regulation • Human resource development • International trade • Manufacturing • Money and finance • Political economies • Technical change • Transportation Explorations in Economic History publishes three types of peer-reviewed articles. Research Articles Full-length articles reporting on significant breakthroughs in the field of economic history. Shorter Articles These can take several forms, including shorter research articles that report on an important contribution to an existing area of research, replication studies and negative results, or articles that exhibit the application of a major new tool or data set that will be widely used in in economic history. Short articles are typically 10-14 manuscript pages plus 2 or 3 tables and figures, and may contain additional information in an online appendix. Surveys and Speculations These periodic articles are devoted to examining and reporting on the frontiers of the field of economic history. They are roughly 4,000-8000 words and survey a topic of broad interest to economists, economic historians, and social scientists, more generally. These articles review important recent advancements, but we encourage submissions that also guide researchers and speculate on future directions.

Futures

ISSN: 0016-3287
5 Year impact factor: 3.5
Impact factor: 3

For the Interdisciplinary Study of Futures, Anticipation and Foresight Futures: For the interdisciplinary study of futures, anticipation and foresight Futures Futures aims to build substantive research and knowledge about the relationships between humanity and its possible futures. It welcomes: new knowledge about humanity's diverse anticipatory practices and how to understand, challenge, develop or enhance them; novel futures-oriented research emerging at the intersections between and beyond disciplines that provides insights into humanity's (and posthumanity's) changing relationship with the future; and the highest quality scholarship in the field of futures/prospective studies. Above all, it is a journal that seeks to analyse and challenge uses, misuses and abuses of futures, and to build robust knowledge about the conditions for creating emancipatory, socially and ecologically just futures. In particular, Futures seeks to: Animate research interest in emerging questions of significance to the futures of people and planet Question and challenge the assumptions that shape how futures are imagined, by: Encouraging dialogue across different fields and different knowledge traditions about the futures of cultures and societies, science and technology, economics and politics, environment and the planet, individuals and humanity Building greater understanding of human (and more-than-human) anticipatory beliefs, expectations, practices and behaviours - building insight into how futures are imagined and the implications of these models for the present Pluralizing the worldviews and perspectives that inform scholarship on and about futures, in particular learning from the knowledges of those who have, hitherto, not been in positions of power and dominance Further develop the intellectual, ethical and empirical foundations of futures inquiry in interdisciplinary studies, the arts, humanities and social sciences, as well as in practice and policy settings Strengthen the methodological development of professional practices in the futures field - including scenario planning, foresight, horizon scanning, as well as methods emerging from outside these traditions Engender high quality, responsible approaches to futures education - in schools, universities and professional and policy settings About the Journal Futures was launched in 1968 to create a forum for the emerging field of Future Studies and is internationally recognised as a leading journal in the field Today, Futures is at the cutting edge of developments in the theory and practice of futures-oriented research across many disciplines, opening-up new ways of theorising, studying, challenging and cultivating human anticipation Futures acts as a point of encounter between the 50+ year history of Futures Studies and emerging interests in time and futures across many fields The journal is at the forefront of efforts to create more plural, democratic and sustainable futures through robust research, high quality scholarship and responsible practice Papers are subject to a rigorous double blind peer review process and are published soon after final acceptance What is in scope/ out of scope for publishing with Futures The journal welcomes papers that: Make a substantive contribution to knowledge in one or more of the following areas: 1. changing relationships between humanity and futures and/or 2.anticipatory processes - the uses of ideas of the future by individuals, organisations, systems and/or 3. the theory, ethics, methods and practices of futures, foresight and prospective and/or 4. the research and practice of futures education Are reflexive and transparent about the theories, assumptions and methods that are used to produce accounts of the future Have the potential to make a significant contribution to efforts to create more plural, democratic and ecologically just futures - by providing new empirical or conceptual insights, challenging paradigms, assumptions and ideas Make a substantial contribution through exploring and informing thinking about futures in a particular domain, country or geographical region, i.e. 'futures of X' (previous examples include work, healthcare, existential risks, education, capitalism, communities, small business, food, governance, synthetic biology...) We actively welcome proposals for Special Issues from researchers seeking to create an interdisciplinary forum for topics and issues that do not yet have a settled disciplinary home We are unable to publish papers that Simply advocate for a vision of a particular desired, possible or probable future, with no reflections on the basis for these claims, without transparency about the methods used to produce these claims, and with no inquiry into the consequences of these future images. For example, we cannot publish papers that simply state without rationale and robust supported argument - 'the future should be X' Simply describe a futures method or technique (e.g. we ran/made these scenarios or 'we did this survey') with no discussion of what happened because of this intervention, no reflection on the assumptions and theory that underpinned the approach, and no analysis of the contribution to the scholarship or practice already existing in the field. This would also exclude from consideration contributions which simply set out a particular model or forecast. Do not refer to futures or potential implications for the future in any way. For example, papers that simply describe technological improvements and efficiencies; papers that simply discuss methods, theories or innovations with no reference to their implications for humanity's relationship to futures or for developing futures-oriented research; or papers that do not explain why the proposed theory, method or innovation is of significance for human anticipatory capacities Do not engage with or contribute to the existing body of knowledge related to futures theory, research and practice

Journal of Stored Products Research

ISSN: 0022-474X
5 Year impact factor: 2.7
Impact factor: 2.7

The Journal of Stored Products Research provides an international medium for the publication of both reviews and original results from laboratory and field research on all aspects of the preservation and safety of stored products along the supply chain starting from production to the consumer. The scope covers both durable commodities, and fresh fruits, vegetables, and freshly manufactured foodstuffs. Durable commodities are characterized by having relatively low moisture content and include raw and semi-processed foods such as grains, dried fruits, and animal feed, and other stored products such as timber, rubber, resins, clothing, and museum artefacts that are generally suitable for long-term storage. Fresh fruits, vegetables, and freshly manufactured foodstuffs (eg. bakery, sausages), are characterized by having high moisture contents but are stored over short to medium-term storage. Manuscripts are welcomed on: the biology, ecology, physiology, behaviour, taxonomy, and genetics of vertebrates (eg. rodents and birds) and invertebrate pests (eg. insects, mites) and microbial spoilage agents (eg. fungi, mold, yeast, and bacteria) environmental factors influencing the life cycles of the above-listed storage pests and spoilage agents the physical, chemical, and biological control of pests and spoilage agents, including the use of biologically producing compounds as preservatives with broad-spectrum antimicrobial activities submission of manuscripts containing research on plant materials/botanicals are encouraged only if significant applied aspects are undertaken demonstrating their detailed chemical composition and long-term efficacy in the laboratory, supported by field application and the use of suitable controls: both negative/blank and positive (i.e., a compound of known activity) development of biochemical or behavioural resistance in pests to control measures and their management storage biotechnology, integrated pest management, and decision support systems the effects of physical, chemical, and environmental control procedures on the physical and chemical nature, besides quality parameters of the stored commodities the assessment, prevention, and control of physical losses and preservation of quality of commodities during storage, and waste management regulatory, technological, and socio-economic subjects relevant to stored products Novel approaches in postharvest food engineering and manufacturing technologies, (eg. AI tools, chemical sensors, gas detectors) in processing, packaging, and design and modifications of storage structures The Journal of Stored Products Research reflects the worldwide interest in finding researched-based solutions for problems arising from the process of storage directly affecting the quality of stored products and their relevance to food security and safety, commodity protection, and their market access and trade.

Socio-Economic Planning Sciences

ISSN: 0038-0121
5 Year impact factor: 6
Impact factor: 6.1

The International Journal of Public Sector Decision-Making During the last several years, there has been substantial and important growth in the application of quantitative analysis, i.e., operations research/management science, statistics, and related arenas, to interdisciplinary problems arising in the area of socio-economic planning and development. Socio-Economic Planning Sciences is an international journal devoted exclusively to research in this important, but under-represented area. It provides a medium for research that might not appear in more specialized journals, either because of the interdisciplinary or applied character of the study, or the mathematical/quantitative nature of the research. The journal thus serves as a focus for investigations that have hitherto appeared in widely-scattered sources and/or less-than-appropriate sources. Socio-Economic Planning Sciences strongly encourages contributions dealing with applications of quantitative models and techniques to important decision problems in the service and public sectors. Of particular interest are accounts of such studies carried out in developing countries and economically emerging regions of the world. Review articles in important methodological and substantive areas are also of interest. The principal criterion used in evaluating a manuscript submitted to the journal is: uniqueness or innovation of the work in terms of the methodology being developed, and/or its application to a problem of particular importance in the public or service sector and/or the setting within which the effort is being made, e.g. an emerging region of the world. That is to say, of the model/methodology itself, the application, and the problem context, at least one of these must be unique and important. Additional criteria considered in reviewing a submitted paper are its accuracy, the organization/presentation (i.e. logical flow), and writing quality. Representative of the topic areas included in the journal are the following: Studies directed toward the more effective utilization of existing resources, e.g. mathematical programming models of health care delivery systems with relevance to more effective program design; systems analysis of fire outbreaks and its relevance to the location of fire stations; statistical analysis of the efficiency of a developing country economy or industry. Studies relating to the interaction of various segments of society and technology, e.g. the effects of government health policies on the utilization and design of hospital facilities; the relationship between housing density and the demands on public transportation or other service facilities: patterns and implications of urban development and air or water pollution. Studies devoted to the anticipations of and response to future needs for social, health and other human services, e.g. the relationship between industrial growth and the development of educational resources in affected areas; investigation of future demands for material and child health resources in a developing country; design of effective recycling in an urban setting.
