Editorial policy encourages an ethnographic and interdisciplinary approach, involving humanities, social sciences, and environmental studies. We publish theoretically informed ethnographies and studies of social relations 'on the ground' which are sensitive to local cultural forms.</p> <p>Africa aims to give increased attention to African production of knowledge, highlighting the work of local African thinkers and writers, emerging social and cultural trends. <br/> <br/> Each issue contains six or seven major articles, arranged thematically, extensive review essays and substantial book reviews.

If accepted for review, such papers will be peer-reviewed in English (or occasionally in the original language). In the event of acceptance we will seek to publish the paper in an English translation in the print + online version of the journal, and in the original language in the online only version of journal. The aim is to make such research that would be of interest to Africa’s readership accessible in English. Article submissions are welcome from both established and younger scholars. Submissions must not be previously published, in English or any other language. The IAI has limited funds for the translation of one or two articles per year. Once a paper has been accepted, we can also consider drawing on other research or institutional funds that may be available to the author. </p> <h2>Special issue submissions</h2> <em>Africa</em> welcomes proposals for special issues of the journal. Special issues include eight or nine papers plus an Introduction from the guest editor(s).

A revista África publica anualmente um número especial, geralmente o primeiro número do volume. Os números especiais incluem oito ou nove artigos e uma Introdução do/ a (s) editor/ a (es /as) convidado /a (s). As propostas para números especiais são examinadas trimestralmente pelos editores da revista, e são adicionalmente levadas à consideração dos membros designados do Conselho Consultivo Editorial.</p> <p>As datas-limite para a revisão editorial de números especiais são as seguintes: 1 de Março, 1 de Junho, 1 de Setembro, 1 de Dezembro de cada ano. Uma vez recebida uma proposta, os editores convidados podem esperar receber o resultado da proposta no prazo de c.3 meses após a submissão.</p> <p>Os editores convidados são encorajados a submeter uma proposta concisa de c.1,000-1,500 palavras que estabeleça o tema/lógica para a edição especial e resumos para todos os artigos em consideração.</p> <p>Os editores convidados são ainda encorajados a consultar as directrizes editoriais gerais da revista e as instruções para os colaboradores disponíveis em <a href="https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/africa/information/instructions-contributors">https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/africa/information/instructions-contributors</a> . </p> <h2>Submissões de artigos em francês e português</h2> <p>Os artigos podem ser submetidos à revista em francês ou português através do email: africa@internationalafricaninstitute.org. Se forem aceites para consideração, tais artigos serão revistos por pares em inglês. Caso os artigos sejam recomendados para publicação, procuraremos publicar o artigo traduzido em Inglês na versão impressa + online da revista, e na língua original apenas na versão online da revista. O objectivo é tornar a pesquisa francófona e lusófona que seja de interesse para os leitores da revista África acessível em inglês. A submissão de artigos é bem-vinda, tanto da parte de académicos já estabelecidos como dos mais jovens. As submissões não devem ter sido publicadas previamente, em inglês ou em qualquer outro idioma. O IAI tem fundos limitados para a tradução de um ou dois artigos por ano. Uma vez aceite um artigo, podemos também considerar o recurso a outros fundos de investigação ou institucionais que possam estar disponíveis para o autor.</p> <h2>Conselho editorial </h2> <h3>Co-Editores</h3> <p>Julie Archambault, Universidade Concordia, Canadá<br/><span class="email">africa(at)internationalafricaninstitute.org</span> </p> <p>Asonzeh Ukah, Universidade da Cidade do Cabo, África do Sul<br/> <span class="email">africa(at)internationalafricaninstitute.org</span> </p> <h3>Editores Encarregados das Revisões</h3> <p>Keren Weitzberg - Editor de Críticas, ÁFRICA <br/>Queen Mary University, Londres, Reino Unido <br/><span class="email">bookreviews@internationalafricaninstitute.org</span> </p> <h3>Editor local Intellectuals</h3> <p>Karin Barber, Universidade de Birmingham, Reino Unido <br/><span class="email">localintellectuals(at)internationalafricaninstitute.org</span> </p> <h3>Conselho Consultivo Editorial</h3> <p>Wale Adebanwi, Universidade de Oxford, Reino Unido<br/> Kojo Amanor, Universidade do Gana, Gana<br/>Leslie Bank, Conselho de Investigação em Ciências Humanas, África do Sul<br/> Erik Bähre, Universidade de Leiden, Países Baixos <br/> Thomas J.
