*Call for Papers:*
Lahore Journal of Policy Studies
The Lahore Journal of Policy Studies is a refereed biannual journal. The
journal has a broad scope. It will cover national, regional and
international political, economic, social and cultural issues of immediate
relevance to public policy. It aims to be a forum for significant new ideas
and seeks to challenge thinkers and intellectuals to policy debate. It is
neither a journalistic magazine nor a technical one. It is rather a
scholarly journal containing provocative, thoughtful, but well-researched
writings with an educated and discerning readership in mind. It seeks
originality and vigour of argument. The selection of papers will be based
on topicality, originality and clarity, the extent to which they advance
knowledge, understanding and application and their likely contribution
towards inspiring further development, research and debate. We consider
promotion of discussion and debate as the most important mandate of a
policy research journal. We welcome serious comments and rejoinders as
short article for publication. We promise a wide dissemination specifically
in Pakistan but generally in the region. It is therefore a journal for
academics who have something to say and to convey or to contend in the
social, economic or the political fields.
Manuscripts, in English only, should be sent online to
[log in to unmask] Article length could range between 4000 to 12000
words. Book reviews may range between 2000 to 3000 words. Comments on
previously published material of the Journal will be welcome, but should
not exceed 4000 words. The first page of the manuscript should have the
title of the paper, the name(s) of author(s) and a footnote giving the
current affiliation of the author(s). Authors are requested to use English
spellings and not American. Tables for the main text and each of its
appendices should be numbered serially and separately. The source of the
data in a table should be given in a footnote immediately below the table.
Footnotes should be numbered consecutively. All references used in the text
should be listed in alphabetical order of the authors’ surnames at the end
of the text. References in the text should include the surname(s) up to 2
and the first author’s surname and et al., when more than 2 authors are
involved, with the year of publication, in parenthesis. LJPS is a journal
of ideas and referencing is required mainly for clarifying sources and
suggesting parenthetical and tangential ideas and may be, for quantitative
figures. The intention should be not to amass unnecessary bibliographic
information.
