Disability & Society Invites Contributions to Current Issues Section
Disability & Society
Guidelines for current issues section
For some years we have incorporated this section into the Journal and we are seeking further contributions on any issue related to disability. The current issues section is ideally suited to articles which seek to raise the voices of those who was seldom heard in academic journals and we welcome articles which air controversies and contentions and which stimulate discussion and debate.
Contributions will typically be:
-
Between 1000 and 2000 words in length, though picture based submissions may also be accepted
-
Related to a current issue in the lives of disabled people and or an issue that has recently been raised in the journal
-
Interesting
It can be:
-
Controversial
-
Challenging
-
A response to previous articles in the current issues of book reviews
It need not:
-
Contain references
-
Conform to the criteria required for academic papers in the journal
-
Be peer reviewed
It must not be:
-
Libellous
-
Grinding personal axes
-
Personally insulting or malicious in intent
