Synopsis

 

The British Journal of Canadian Studies is published twice-yearly by Liverpool University Press on behalf of the British Association for Canadian Studies. Launched over thirty years ago, BJCS is broad-based, multidisciplinary, and international, welcoming contributions from all areas of the arts and humanities and the economic and social sciences.

 

BJCS is committed to publishing research and scholarship on the analysis of Canadian issues, spanning wide-ranging historical and contemporary concerns and interests, as well as varied aspects of domestic, provincial, national, international and global significance.

 

BJCS welcomes articles that deal directly or through a comparative frame with Canada’s experiences, place and role in the wider English or French speaking worlds. Its prime objective is to further knowledge, discussion and understanding of Canada’s diverse experiences, peoples, places, perspectives and priorities in past and contemporary contexts. Literature reviews and shorter articles on teaching and learning related topics are also welcome. There is normally one ‘general’ issue and one ‘themed’ issue each year although this may vary.

 

BJCS welcomes submissions from established and newer scholars, researchers and professionals working in any country. Articles may be submitted in either English or French and should normally be between 5,000 and 7,000 words, although shorter articles will also be considered. They must be based on original research or offer well grounded theoretical contributions. For further information, please visit other sections of this website or contact the Editor: H.Norris-Nicholson@mmu.ac.uk.
