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.
