Issue 7 is available!



This issue, entitled “Publishing Africa”, is coordinated by David Mills (University of Oxford), Stephanie Kitchen (SOAS, University of London) and Bouchra Sidi-Hida (Codesria, Centre for Studies and Research in Social Sciences (CERSS) Rabat).


What future does the publication of African academic journals hold?


"In this issue, we bring together seven articles and seven authors, each with their own perspective on the best way forward. Our contributors come from Africa, Europe and North America, and work in different locations and at different scales. Many of them reflect on the journey that publishing has taken and the paths that lie ahead based on digitalisation. Several of them are editors or publishers of journals and therefore draw on solid practical experience."
