CONTINUOUS / ONGOING CALL FOR PAPERS - CURRENT ISSUES IN METHOD AND
PRACTICE
Over the past few years, the Current Issues in Method and Practice
(CIMP) section of Current Issues in Tourism (<http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/1368-3500
>) has published several stimulating articles, including:
** Tourism Statistics: Methodological Imperatives and Difficulties:
The Case of Residential Tourism in Island Communities (<http://www.multilingual-matters.net/cit/011/cit0110369.htm
>)
** The Potential for Appreciative Inquiry in Tourism Research (<http://www.multilingual-matters.net/cit/011/cit0110281.htm
>)
** An Email-Based Delphi Approach to Tourism Program Evaluation:
Involving Stakeholders in Research Design (<http://www.multilingual-matters.net/cit/011/cit0110269.htm
>)
The aim of the CIMP section is twofold: (1) to publish thought-
provoking papers that examine and challenge methods in tourism
research; and (2) to provide an outlet for work that considers the
interface(s) between industry/sector and academia.
Submissions are therefore welcome that have as their focus one or more
of the following broad areas:
(1) a specific methodological issue: for example, question(s) of
ontology and epistemology in tourism research;
(2) an exploration of a specific method (or set/series of methods) in
tourism research, where the focus is largely (if not exclusively) on
the operationalisation of that method as opposed to the information it
yields;
(3) issues of dissemination: for example, how tourism research is
disseminated ‘on the ground’ to the various industries, enterprise
operations and firms that comprise the multifaceted tourism sector.
Further to this, how should academics best frame their research in
order to be of use to stakeholders and decision-makers?
Submissions are generally between 3000-5000 words. Style and format
guidelines mirror those in place for the journal itself, which can be
found here: <http://tinyurl.com/3rmc89>
Note that this is a continuing (on-going) Call for Papers. There is
no set deadline. Submissions are assessed as they are received.
HOW TO SUBMIT A MANUSCRIPT TO CIMP FOR CONSIDERATION
Current Issues in Tourism employs an online method of manuscript
submission, which can be found at <http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/cvp-cit
>. During the process of submitting a new article, you are prompted
to select the "Manuscript Type", which is where you may select
