[lg policy] Fwd: People, Place & Policy: Call for special issues

[Dave Sayers]

Forwarded from the social-policy list, which some members might also like to join: 
https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/social-policy. (I'd suggest choosing the daily digest as 
it's a reasonably busy list.)

This journal is nothing to do with me; just forwarding for interest.

Subject: People, Place & Policy: Call for special issues

People, Place and Policy (http://extra.shu.ac.uk/ppp-online/) is inviting proposals from people who would be interested in editing a special thematic
issue of the journal to be published in 2017.

People, Place and Policy (PPP) is an open access journal that provides a forum for debate about how policy shapes the risks, opportunities and
constraints that face people and places in contemporary society. PPP is interdisciplinary in scope and welcomes a range of contributions including
empirical studies, policy analysis, methodological and theoretical reflections as well as ‘think pieces’ exploring contemporary policy issues.
The journal is UK focused but also publishes pieces of cross-national and international significance.

Special issue proposals may relate to any of the thematic areas of PPP, including Communities and Neighbourhoods; Crime and Policy; Energy and
Environment; Ethnicity, Race and Migration; Government and Politics; Housing, Planning and Regeneration; Labour Markets; the Voluntary and
Community Sector; and Welfare Systems. In recent years, PPP has published special issues on community energy systems <http://extra.shu.ac.uk/ppp-online/category/volume-8-issue-3/>, the third
sector <http://extra.shu.ac.uk/ppp-online/category/volume-9-issue-2/>, and Roma integration in the UK.
<http://extra.shu.ac.uk/ppp-online/editorial-special-issue-roma-integration-in-the-uk/>

Interested applicants are encouraged to contact Tom Moore (tom.moore at sheffield.ac.uk) in the first instance with a brief summary of the focus of their proposed special issue (2-3 paragraphs) and a
description of how they will solicit potential papers. Special issues are usually composed of at least 4-5 original papers. Successful applicants will work closely with members of the PPP editorial team and receive
support with the organization and promotion of the issue. Early expressions of interest are encouraged, but the deadline for submissions is Tuesday 1st
March 2016.
