New Series

We are delighted to be publishers of the Bristol Studies in Comparative and International Development series.  The series started life as Professor Michael Crossley’s highly successful Bristol Papers in Education: Comparative and International Studies series, established in the 1990s.  Updated and revamped, with a new series editor line-up, Bristol University Press are delighted to have taken over as publishers for the series this year. 

We are proactively commissioning for the series and welcome proposals for single/co-authored monographs, edited collections or ‘Shorts’ – books of between 30-50,000 words.  If you would like to discuss projects – at any stage of development – please contact the series editors, or Philippa Grand, Publisher, at Philippa.grand@bristol.ac.uk.
