The Equal Rights Trust invites original unpublished articles for the future issues of The Equal Rights Review. We welcome contributions on all aspects of equality law, policy or practice. We encourage articles that examine equality in respect to cross-cutting issues. We also encourage articles that examine equality law policy or practice from international, regional and national perspectives. 

 

Authors are particularly welcome to submit articles on the basis of their original current or past research in any discipline related to equality. 

 

Prospective authors are advised that: 

• All submitted articles will be considered by our Editorial team. Articles which are not deemed thematically suitable for the next volume will be considered for future volumes unless authors request otherwise.
• Shortlisted articles are subjected to a double blind peer review prior to being accepted for publication.
• The ERR is available free of charge online and in leading University libraries as well as being distributed to over 7000 academics, activists and advocates.

 

Next Volume 

Volume Ten of the ERR will be published in March 2013. We welcome contributions on all aspects of equality law, policy or practice at a national, regional or global level.  However, we particularly welcome articles for inclusion within the “Special,” the focus of which will be: “An Equal Right to Family Life: Issues and Developments”.
