EJJ accepts what might be referred to as \u201ctraditional academic\u201d articles, but we encourage scholars to write and produce research that exposes the limits of this form as well as compose research in modes that pay homage to and honor traditions of marginalized populations as a voice of resistance. We expect thoughtful, provocative, and well-researched articles, but we also encourage authors to play with form and content. Inclusive of reference, charts, graphs, etc manuscripts can not exceed 10,000 words. Articles will go through a double-blind peer-review process. Authors can expect to receive a decision in 3-4 months.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

EJJ accepts commentary pieces on any topic. Commentaries are designed to be thoughtful and passionate pieces that utilize research in a provocative manner. Commentaries will go through a double-blind peer-review process. Although there are no word limits to Commentaries, we would expect that they would not exceed 4000 words. Authors can expect to receive a decision in 2-3 months.<\/p>\n

EJJ encourages authors to write critical book reviews that would not only give more exposure to the authors, but would afford our readership the opportunity to explore the expansive literature that exists from authors from marginalized populations. There are a variety of ways to conduct a critical book review. We want authors of book reviews to be critical, yet all reviews must be supported by relevant evidence. All book reviews go through a double-blind peer-review process, and should not exceed 1000 words. Authors can expect to receive a decision in 2-3 months.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

EJJ accepts proposals for special issues beyond the two annual issues. To propose a special issue please send a detailed 500-1000 word description of the issue, a draft of the call for manuscripts, a tentative timeline, and the curriculum vitae of the guest editor(s). Editors are required to ensure that all articles in the special issue go through a blind-peer review process. Editors will be asked to submit final manuscripts with peer reviews to the editors on the negotiated deadline. The entire special issues or specific manuscripts of the special issue may also go through an additional peer-review and\/or editorial review process with EJJ prior to publication. Authors can expect to receive a decision in 2-3 months.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t
