Explorations in Economic History

ISSN: 0014-4983
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. Since the format is quite broad, please see some recent examples for models or contact one of the editors for additional direction.

Food Policy

ISSN: 0306-9192
5 Year impact factor: 7
Impact factor: 6.5

Food Policy is a multidisciplinary journal publishing original research and novel evidence on issues in the formulation, implementation, and evaluation of policies for the food sector in developing, transition, and advanced economies. Our main focus is on the economic and social aspect of food policy, and we prioritize empirical studies informing international food policy debates. Provided that articles make a clear and explicit contribution to food policy debates of international interest, we consider papers from any of the social sciences. Papers from other disciplines (e.g., law) will be considered only if they provide a key policy contribution, and are written in a style which is accessible to a social science readership. Policy issues that are relevant to the journal include: • Food production, trade, marketing, and consumption • Nutrition and health aspects of food systems • Food needs, entitlements, security, and aid • Food safety and quality assurance • Technological and institutional innovation affecting food systems and access • Food systems and environmental sustainability Conceptual and methodological articles should be written so that they are accessible to the journal's diverse international readership. We normally do not publish review papers, although we might make rare exceptions for rigorous and critical reviews on topical issues. See also Elsevier's Economics Journals

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

Games and Economic Behavior

ISSN: 0899-8256
5 Year impact factor: 1.5
Impact factor: 1.1

Games and Economic Behavior (GEB) is a general-interest journal devoted to the advancement of game theory and its applications. Game theory applications cover a wide range of subjects in social, behavioral, mathematical and biological sciences, and game theoretic methodologies draw on a large variety of tools from those sciences. Publication criteria: GEB publishes general-interest papers that significantly advance the frontiers of game theory and its applications. This is a high bar, but the journal's editors are open-minded about the interpretations and trade-offs involved. For example, a paper in industrial organization that deals with corporate takeover might be of general game-theoretic interest if it contributes to our understanding of coalition formation. Similarly, the analysis of games played by computer algorithms might be relevant to modeling strategic thinking. The editors are also open-minded about the frontiers. They are happy to publish papers that, while not in currently popular areas, lead to significant new frontiers in game theory and applications. Authors are therefore encouraged to make a clear case, in the paper itself, that it meets these publication criteria. Evaluation procedure: Each paper is initially assigned by GEB's chief editor to one of the seven editors (including himself), who has final decision authority. In determining their decisions, editors consult with advisory editors and reviewers who are anonymous to the authors. The assigned editor then (non-anonymously) communicates her/his decision to the corresponding author in a decision letter, usually accompanied by one or more referees' and/or advisory editors' reports. Currently GEB publishes about 15% of the submitted papers. However, when editors decide that a submitted paper does not have a chance of meeting the journal publication criterion, they "desk-reject" the paper without going through the standard, lengthy evaluation process. About one third of the submitted papers are desk-rejected.

Health & Place

ISSN: 1353-8292
5 Year impact factor: 5.4
Impact factor: 4.8

Health & Place is an interdisciplinary journal dedicated to the study of the role of place in understanding health and health care. Recent years have seen closer links evolving between health geography, medical sociology, health policy, public health and epidemiology, amongst other disciplines. The journal reflects these convergences, which emphasise differences in health and health-related experiences between places, the social, cultural and political processes shaping the contexts for health, the health-related experience of healthcare provision, the development of health care for places, and the innovative methodologies and theories underpinning the study of these issues. The journal publishes original research articles, short communications, opinion papers and reviews relevant to any aspects of health where place is a central theme in the research. It brings together contributors from geography, sociology, social policy, population health science, public health and other related disciplines. The journal also welcomes proposals for special issues - please visit our Special Issues Proposal page to find out more information. We welcome research that offers comparative perspectives on the difference that place makes to the incidence of ill-health, the structuring of health-related behaviour, the provision and use of health services, and the development of health policy. We are interested in submissions informed by a theoretical framework, that inform policy and practice, and of general interest to an international readership. At a time when the role of place is increasingly recognised as being crucial to enhancing population health and reducing health inequity, Health & Place provides a forum for summarizing developments and reporting on the latest research findings. The journal seeks to maintain the highest standards of peer-reviewed excellence, as well as to provide a forum for interdisciplinary debate on the connections between health and place.
