The Nordic Journal of Human Rights invites submissions for its special issue on research methods related to Business & Human Rights (BHR) to be published in 2018. This Special Issue seeks to promote the interdisciplinary potential of BHR research by inviting contributions that develop new methods for research and analysis, or pragmatically apply methods across academic disciplines, bridging the division among academic disciplines. We invite submission of original research that display methods for BHR research, or methodological models, or theoretical explanations of the challenges and opportunities in BHR research methods.
Submission deadline: 21 August 2017
Publication: February 2018
Guidelines for submission
Full-length manuscripts are due by 21 August 2017 at the latest. Articles should range between 6000 and 8000 words including footnotes and should conform to NJHR’s style and referencing guidelines (OSCOLA Law style). Authors can submit papers online, using the Editorial Manager website or by sending the manuscript in MS Word format directly to [email protected].
Articles judged suitable for consideration will be reviewed in a double blind peer review process. The guest editors plan to hold a paper development workshop in June 2017 (details to be published here on the journal’s website). For further questions or inquiries please contact [email protected].
