Journal Guide

For nearly two decades, Politics, Religion & Ideology has provided the leading international forum for the scholarly exploration of the politics of illiberal ideologies, both religious and secular. The journal is multi-disciplinary, cutting-edge and truly international in scope, having to date received submissions from authors located in over 30 different countries.

The journal publishes critical analyses of theory and international case studies pertaining to:
• The historic and ongoing interaction between religion and politics.
• The impact of religious radicalism on public policy, political attitudes and decision-making.
• The contemporary politics of religious revival in Europe, North and South America, the Middle East, and Asia.
• The historical and contemporary politics of secular 'totalising' movements, such as fascism, Nazism, Stalinism, Maoism, and Ba'athism.
• Conflicts between illiberal ideologies (both religious and secular) and their opponents.
• Constructions of the sacred and the secular in political religions and other political ideologies.
• Publicly enforced (ir)religion and dissent.
• Class, gender and race in the context of political religions and religious politics.
• Memory, memory culture and the politics of memory in the context of totalitarianism and radical ideologies.

Committed to methodological and empirical eclecticism, Politics, Religion & Ideology continues to bring together leading academics and younger researchers engaged in exploring the above thematic. Directed to historians, social scientists, and policy analysts alike, the journal promotes original scholarship that demonstrates an acute awareness of the conceptual and methodological problems raised by the study of social phenomena, such as radicalism and political violence. The journal invites contributions that map common areas between different subject areas, revises conventional definitions of key concepts and, where appropriate, applies non-Eurocentric perspectives to political events, political ideas and political actors.

For over half a century, Population Studies has reported significant advances in methods of demographic analysis, conceptual and mathematical theories of demographic dynamics and behaviour, and the use of these theories and methods to extend scientific knowledge and to inform policy and practice.The Journal's coverage of this field is comprehensive: applications in developed and developing countries; historical and contemporary studies; quantitative and qualitative studies; analytical essays and reviews. The subjects of papers range from classical concerns, such as the determinants and consequences of population change, to such topics as family demography and evolutionary and genetic influences on demographic behaviour. Often the Journal's papers have had the effect of extending the boundaries of its field.Papers for publication and books for review should be submitted via Population Studies' Manuscript Central site, at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/rpstOther editorial correspondence should be addressed to: The EditorsPopulation Investigation CommitteeRoom PS201London School of EconomicsHoughton StreetLondon WC2A 2AETelephone +44 (0)20-7955-7666Fax +44 (0)207 955 6831Email: pic@lse.ac.ukIndividual Subscribers: Online Access Activation.

Post-Medieval Archaeology is a bi-annual journal devoted to the study of the material evidence of European society wherever it is found in the world. This fascinating period saw the transition from medieval to industrial society, the foundation of the modern European world on new Renaissance and Reformation values, the shift from collective to individual mentalities, increasing social segregation, new notions of privacy, family, gender and space, global expansion, and revolutions in the modes and scales of production. The journal wishes to foster a multidisciplinary approach to the past, exploiting material, textual, iconographic and scientific evidence, and to engage in the latest theoretical debates.Post-Medieval Archaeology is an international journal, covering a range of subjects, which illustrates the increasingly broad scope of post-medieval archaeology today, including pottery, glass, metalwork, fortifications, vernacular architecture, landscape studies and industrial archaeology.
