Special Issues

The Science and Information Organization publishes Special Issues that focus on a specific area of research that has broad appeal and falls within the aims and scope of the journal.

Special Issues provide an excellent opportunity to review a topic, examine previously unaddressed aspects of it, propose and develop new approaches, exchange perspectives and encourage new lines of research.

Click here to look for the past special issues.

Special Issue Proposals

Selection of Special Issues will be made in consultation with the co-editors, based on the elements presented below. During the evaluation process, The Science and Information Organization editorial team may ask experts in the area of the Special Issue topic to give their opinions on the proposal.

Special Issue proposals must contain the following elements:

  • Name and affiliation of proposed Guest Editors
  • Short CV of proposed Guest Editors, including a list of major publications and editorial experience
  • Call for Papers for the Special Issue. This Call for Papers must include:
    • A provisional title of the Special Issue
    • Justification for dedicating an entire issue of Organization Studies to this Special Issue topic: what is its broad appeal and what are its projected theoretical, practical and policy implications for the field?
    • The Special Issue's objective
    • The Special Issue's scope, including potential themes to be addressed in the Special Issue
    • Examples of questions that would meet the objective of the Special Issue (for examples of previous Calls for Papers, please refer to past issues of the journal)
  • Potential Guest Editors should list any other Special Issues or special sections that they are aware of that have been published, or will be published, by other journals and which are devoted to the proposed or a closely related topic. In such cases, potential Guest Editors should show how their proposed Special Issue is unique and innovative in comparison, and explain how it will add to existing literatures.
  • A plan explaining how the call for papers will be advertised (web sites, distribution lists, conferences, associations, etc.). Potential Guest Editors should be aware of the requirement that Special Issues must be truly open to any researcher working on the addressed topic. This requirement means that Special Issues cannot be restricted to researchers participating in specific workshops, symposia or small group meetings.
  • Potential Guest Editors should make an effort to attract contributors from around the world. This will help enhance the Special Issue content by providing a variety of perspectives. Potential Guest Editors are therefore asked to explain in their proposal how they plan to attract researchers internationally.
