Editorial Contacts

Editorial contacts

Interface is not a traditional, centralised journal with a single key editor! Because we are a global journal, and movements (and their relationships to academia) are organised so differently in different parts of the world, the basic structure of the journal is as a network of regional or linguistically-defined groups, each of which organises its own editorial processes and tries to find an appropriate way of working with its own local realities. Articles and queries should go to the contact person listed below for the relevant region:

Movements in the Arab world, Central Asia and East Asia
We are hoping to expand our intellectual and linguistic capacity to include these areas, but at present do not have sufficient editorial expertise to review papers on movements in these regions. Expressions of interest from potential regional editors, willing to help assemble a regional subgroup of academics and activists to review papers on movements in any of these regions, are very welcome.

Other queries
For more general enquiries, or where there is no contact person, please contact Ana Margarida Esteves (anamargarida.esteves@gmail.com); Cristina Flesher Fominaya (cristinaflesher@gmail.com) or Laurence Cox (laurence.cox@nuim.ie).

Help wanted!
The editing group has some language and translating expertise, and is hoping to expand this further with your help. At present, we can accept papers in Afrikaans, Catalan, Croatian, Danish, English, French, German, Hungarian, Italian, Maltese, Norwegian, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish and Zulu. We are interested in expanding this capacity to other languages, in particular Arabic, Chinese and Indonesian.

Beyond translation, we are very much looking for other engaged researchers, whether movement-based or university-based, to help with the journal. If you feel you might be able to help with any of these, please contact the most appropriate person above.

We are particularly looking for regional editors to work with the existing East / Central European, Mediterranean, South Asian and Spanish-speaking Latin American groups, as well as potential regional editors willing to help establish groups of activists and academics to review papers on movements in the Arab world, for Central Asia and for East Asia. We have the makings of a North American group, but at present no North American editor.

We are also looking for people who are willing to act as members of the various regional collectives! This involves occasionally reviewing and commissioning articles, as well as discussions about the journal’s direction and its relationship to local movements.

If you feel you might be able to help with any of these, please contact the appropriate person from the list above.
