Journal Guide

Gender & Society (GENDSOC) is peer-reviewed, highly-ranked, published bi-monthly, and is the official journal of Sociologists for Women in Society. It focuses on the social and structural study of gender as a basic principle of the social order and as a primary social category. Emphasizing theory and research from micro- and macrostructual perspectives, it features original research, reviews, international perspectives, and book reviews from diverse social science disciplines.

Interdisciplinary and cross-national in scope, Gender Issues includes political, economic, social and behavioral analyses with diverse perspectives and policy conclusions. In contrast to many other publications in this field, Gender Issues does not focus on women as an insular group: it broadens the perspective to include men’s issues, and the extensive effect of changing sex roles on gender relations. Gender Issues is dedicated to publishing basic and applied research on the relationships between men and women: on similarities and differences in socialization, personality, and behavior: and on the changing aspirations, roles, and status of women in industrial, urban societies as well as in developing nations. Gender Issues encourages contributions from scholars in all areas of the social sciences, as well as letters to the editor, and incisive reviews of important literature from all sides of the debate about gender relations.

2009 Impact Factor: 0.731Ranking: 68/139 (Education & Educational Research)169; Thomson Reuters, Journal Citation Reports 2010Gender and Education is an international forum for discussion of multidisciplinary educational research and ideas that focus on gender as a category of analysis. Contributors should bear in mind that they are addressing an international audience. The journal grew out of a feminist politics and is committed to developing the critical discussion of gender and education in its broadest sense. It is particularly interested in the place of gender in relation to other key social differences and seeks to further feminist knowledge, theory, consciousness, action and debate. We welcome contributions which examine and theorize the interrelated experiences of women and girls and men and boys, and how these shape and are shaped by other social differences. We expect articles to engage in feminist debate and to go beyond the simple description of what boys/men and girls/women do. Education will be interpreted in a broad sense to cover both formal and informal aspects, including nursery, primary and secondary education; youth cultures inside and outside schools; adult, community, further and higher education; vocational education and training; media education; parental education. Contributors are asked to avoid unnecessary or mystifying jargon and to use non-sexist and non-racist language.

GM focuses on empirical research, theoretical developments, practice and current issues, addressing broad-ranging social issues, political and legislative decisions, social and educational policy and economic factors within the context of gender, management and leadership advancing knowledge and practice in the field.

It also seeks to highlight the significance of such research for feminism and women's studies. The editors seek articles based on primary research that address: the particularities and intersections of gender, race, ethnicity, age, (dis)ability, sexuality, class, culture and place; feminist, anti-racist, critical and radical geographies of space, place, nature and the environment; feminist geographies of difference, resistance, marginality and/or spatial negotiation; and, critical methodology."Gender, Place and Culture is a very high quality journal, one that is advancing original scholarship in the critical arenas of feminist geography and feminist interdisciplinary work. The journal foregrounds theoretically-informed debate on gender issues bringing together human geographical research with that from a range of related disciplines, including Women's Studies, Sociology, Cultural Studies and Anthropology. I enthusiastically recommend it."Victoria A.

An international, refereed journal, Gender, Technology and Development serves as a forum for exploring the linkages between gender relations, development and/or technological change. The objective of the journal is to provide a platform for original research and theorizing on the shifting meanings of gender, as it relates to advances in science and technologies and/or to social, political, economic, and cultural change. In particular, the journal is interested in addressing these in the context of transnational phenomena and engaging in dialogues that cut across geographical boundaries. 

Awareness of gender as a central feature of all aspects of everyday life and society has become more and more widespread. Appropriately social sciences research is reflecting this increasing concern with gender, especially in the field of work and organization where this journal is focused. Gender, Work & Organization is the first journal to bring together a wide range of interdisciplinary and multi-disciplinary research in this field into a new international forum for debate and analysis. Contributions are invited from all disciplinary perspectives including anthropology, history, labour economics, law, philosophy, politics, psychology, and sociology.

Gene publishes papers that focus on the regulation, expression, function and evolution of genes in all biological contexts, including all prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms, as well as viruses.Gene strives to be a very diverse journal and topics in all fields will be considered for publication. Although not limited to the following, some general topics include:• DNA Organization, Replication & Evolution -Focus on genomic DNA (chromosomal organization, comparative genomics, DNA replication, DNA repair, mobile DNA, mitochondrial DNA, chloroplast DNA).• Expression & Function - Focus on functional RNAs (microRNAs, tRNAs, rRNAs, mRNA splicing, alternative polyadenylation)• Regulation - Focus on processes that mediate gene-read out (epigenetics, chromatin, histone code, transcription, translation, protein degradation).• Cell Signaling - Focus on mechanisms that control information flow into the nucleus to control gene expression (kinase and phosphatase pathways controlled by extra-cellular ligands, Wnt, Notch, TGFbeta/BMPs, FGFs, IGFs etc.)• Profiling of gene expression and genetic variation - Focus on high throughput approaches (e.g., DeepSeq, ChIP-Seq, Affymetrix microarrays, proteomics) that define gene regulatory circuitry, molecular pathways and protein/protein networks.• Genetics - Focus on development in model organisms (e.g., mouse, frog, fruit fly, worm), human genetic variation, population genetics, as well as agricultural and veterinary genetics.• Molecular Pathology & Regenerative Medicine - Focus on the deregulation of molecular processes in human diseases and mechanisms supporting regeneration of tissues through pluripotent or multipotent stem cells.Gene encourages submission of novel manuscripts that present a reasonable level of analysis, functional relevance and/or mechanistic insight. Gene also welcomes papers that have predominantly a descriptive component but improve the essential basis of knowledge for subsequent functional studies, or provide important confirmation of recently published discoveries.The primary criteria for acceptance are that the work is original and scientifically sound. The journal appreciates that standards of novelty are arbitrary, differ among disciplines and geographic locations, as well as change with time. In partnership with Editors, Referees and Authors, the journal will promote the revision of papers to ensure that accepted papers are reasonably complete and competitive with concurrent submissions in a given field.

Gene Expression Patterns is devoted to the rapid publication of high quality studies of gene expression during development. These studies can be the in situ expression patterns of important or interesting genes, or the temporal expression of large gene sets during development. Studies of gene expression in cell culture are also suitable if they have clear developmental relevance; for example, analysis of key regulatory genes or of gene sets in the maintenance or differentiation of stem cells. There is no specific length limitation for the papers provided that the results are reported succinctly.
