“The biggest challenges societies around the world face require a commitment to working across both disciplinary and geographic borders. This new forum for researchers with many different kinds of experience and perspectives to publish and debate pressing issues such as sustainability, justice and public health is most welcome.”
Diane Coyle, Bennett Professor of Public Policy, University of Cambridge
“I’m proud to see Bristol University Press launching this important new journal, which promises to address the most urgent complexities of global social challenges by drawing together accessible international scholarship across the disciplines to inform policy and practice.”
Professor Judith Squires, Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Provost, University of Bristol
“This brand new journal aims at engaging the full range of ‘social’ conditions we confront. I fully support this opening up of a broader domain than has been the usual in the social sciences.”
Professor Saskia Sassen, Columbia University, New York
“In a world faced with global social challenges, narrow technical solutions and win-win scenarios abound. Too often, they evade the rigorous, collaborative work that forging just resolutions to global social challenges demands. Grounded in the social sciences, the journal will bring fresh perspectives to urgent conversations and foster open debate.”
Tania Li, University Professor, Department of Anthropology, University of Toronto and Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada
