About the journal
Global Discourse is an interdisciplinary, problem-oriented journal of applied contemporary thought operating at the intersection of politics, international relations, sociology and social policy. The journal's scope is broad, encouraging interrogation of current affairs with regard to core questions of distributive justice, wellbeing, cultural diversity, autonomy, sovereignty, security and recognition. All issues are themed and aimed at addressing pressing issues as they emerge. Rejecting the notion that publication is the final stage in the research process,Global Discourse seeks to foster discussion and debate between often artificially isolated disciplines and paradigms, with responses to articles encouraged and conversations continued across issues.

What are we looking for?
A themed issue aims to bring together six to eight cutting-edge articles, each accompanied by one or more commentaries, that engage centrally with a specific problem or set of problems with clear policy implications.

This means that the remit is broad, and recent issues have focused on: the potential value of evolutionary theory to policymaking on climate change, social security and other areas; the central role of interdisciplinarity in dealing with multiple overlapping crises; the role of emotion in pandemic governance; the challenge of precarity in housing.

This problem-oriented focus means that an issue proposal needs to be concerned with relating theory to practice and applying interdisciplinary approaches to otherwise isolated fields.

We want issues that are genuinely innovative and provide pathways through to groundbreaking research and real-world impact.
