About this journal
Aims and scope
Patterns of Prejudice is a peer reviewed, international journal published five times a year. The journal provides a forum for exploring the historical roots and contemporary varieties of social exclusion and the demonization or stigmatization of racial, ethnic, national or religious Others across the world. It probes the language and construction of ’race’, nation, colour and ethnicity, as well as the linkages between these categories. The journal does not publish texts that analyse cases of prejudice based on gender/sexuality or disability.
As an interdisciplinary journal, Patterns of Prejudice aims to be accessible to a large and diverse academic and professional audience, including those working across the whole spectrum of Humanities and Social Science subjects. The journal seeks to identify those texts that demonstrate not only an author’s expertise of their specific subject but also their ability to communicate it to scholars working in other fields. For this reason, we discourage the submission of articles—written for a specialist audience—that use specialized terminology or complex statistical computations.
Patterns of Prejudice is a peer-reviewed journal, produced in association with the Parkes Institute for the Study of Jewish/non-Jewish Relations at the University of Southampton. The views expressed in the journal are those of the individual authors.

Understanding and using journal metrics
Journal metrics can be a useful tool for readers, as well as for authors who are deciding where to submit their next manuscript for publication. However, any one metric only tells a part of the story of a journal’s quality and impact. Each metric has its limitations which means that it should never be considered in isolation, and metrics should be used to support and not replace qualitative review.
We strongly recommend that you always use a number of metrics, alongside other qualitative factors such as a journal’s aims & scope, its readership, and a review of past content published in the journal. In addition, a single article should always be assessed on its own merits and never based on the metrics of the journal it was published in.
For more details, please read the Author Services guide to understanding journal metrics.
