Apologies for cross-posting. Sage Publications are delighted to announce that they will be publishing Probation Journal, the Journal of Community and Criminal Justice, from 2003, starting with Volume 50, Issue 1. The journal is being published in association with NAPO, the National Association of Probation Officers. Probation Journal was established in 1929 and now provides a national and international forum for sharing good practice, disseminating criminal justice research and developing debate about the theory and practice of work with offenders. The Journal is read in 25 countries, and has gained a reputation for publishing material which is both of a high quality and accessible to a wide readership. Probation Journal is not limited to probation issues and welcomes submissions from those interested in the wider community justice arena (e.g. Youth Justice, Community Safety Projects, Prisons, Police, Victim Support, Voluntary Organisations). Articles which inform the realities of practice, evaluate effectiveness and genuinely enhance understanding of difference and anti-oppressive values are particularly welcome. Probation Journal is a peer-reviewed publication. Contributions are welcomed from practitioners, academics, managers, policy-makers and others with an interest in community and criminal justice issues. Each article is anonymised before being assessed by a standing editorial board consisting of practitioners, criminal justice academics, senior and chief officers with varying areas of special interest and experience. The board is assisted by internationally renowned academic and professional assessors from across the community justice spectrum. Probation Journal is owned by NAPO (the professional association and union for probation and court welfare workers) and represents commitment to high standards of professionalism within the National Probation Service and wider Community and Criminal Justice Sector. However, editorial decisions are completely independent and the Journal's contents do not necessarily represent NAPO policy. Quarterly: March, June, September, December ISSN: 0264-5505 For more information, including subscription rates, please visit the journal web page at www.sagepub.co.uk ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------- Jay Curtis [log in to unmask]
