>Call for papers
>
>The Journal of Agricultural and Environmental Ethics welcomes
>articles on ethical issues confronting agriculture, food production,
>processing, and consumption, and environmental concerns. All papers
>published in the journal are thoroughly peer reviewed. The goal of
>this journal is to create a forum for discussion of moral issues
>arising from actual or projected social policies in regard to a wide
>range of questions. Among these are ethical questions concerning the
>responsibilities of agricultural producers, the assessment of
>technological changes affecting farm populations, the utilization of
>farmland and other resources, the development of intensive
>agriculture, the modification of ecosystems, animal welfare, the
>professional responsibilities of agrologists, veterinarians, or food
>scientists, the use of biotechnology, the safety, availability, and
>affordability of food.
>
>The editors also welcome papers on food issues, such as the ethics of
>consumption, food safety, regulation, GMO foods, labeling issues, and
>criteria for assessing food safety and nutritional value.
>Papers on environmental ethics/issues and environmental philosophy
>that are not directly related to agriculture or food systems are also
>welcome, including papers that address issues about nonhuman animal
>welfare, whether or not they concern farm or food animals.
>
>Other related topics of interest include resource
>conservation/preservation, criteria for assessing ecosystem health,
>biodiversity preservation, toxic waste disposal, environmental
>racism, population ethics, corporate responsibility, endangered
>species, fisheries and aquaculture, and management of livestock and
>zoonotic diseases.
>
>Theoretical papers from various disciplinary perspectives and also
>from disciplines like food studies, literature, and women's studies
>are also welcome? The journal will also publish scientific articles
>that are relevant to ethical issues, as well as relevant
>philosophical papers. In addition to substantial papers, the journal
>will also publish brief discussion pieces and book reviews.
>On average, we have devoted one issue per year to some special topic.
>These special issues are guest edited, though their contents are
>peer-reviewed. We welcome proposals from prospective guest editors to
>organize special issues. In the recent past we have published special
>issues on the following topics:
>
>Food Ethics and Consumer Concerns (12/2)
>The Dignity of Non-Human Organisms (13/1/2)
>The Precautionary Principle (15/1)
>Food Safety, Food Quality, and Food Ethics (15/3)
>Ethics as a Dimension of Food Policy (16/6)
>Farm Animal Disease in Context (17/4)
>

>both the USA and Europe, we are actively seeking more contributions
>from other regions, such as Eastern Europe, the South Americas,
>Africa, and Asia.
