About this journal

Aims and scope

Race Ethnicity and Education is the leading peer-reviewed journal on racism and race inequality in education. The journal provides a focal point for international scholarship, research and debate by publishing original and challenging research that explores the dynamics of race, racism and ethnicity in education policy, theory and practice.

Race Ethnicity and Education especially welcomes writing that addresses the interconnections between race, ethnicity and multiple forms of oppression including class, gender, sexuality and disability.

Race Ethnicity and Education is supported by the AERA Critical Examination of Race, Ethnicity, Class and Gender in Education Special Interest Group and the BERA ‘Race’ Ethnicity and Education Special Interest Group.

All manuscripts that take whiteness as their focus are better placed in REE's sister publication Whiteness & Education and will not be considered by REE.

Peer Review Policy:
All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by at least two anonymous referees.
