The new journal Leadership and the Humanities has its genesis in the belief that the disciplines of the humanities offer unique and important insights into the understanding and practice of leadership. The strength of the humanities has ever been the depth that they provide to our understanding and comprehension of the essential human condition. The disciplines of the humanities—Classics, History, Literature, Philosophy, Religion, Linguistics, Law, and the Visual and Performing Arts—prioritize meaning and purpose rather than mechanical causality. These approaches to knowledge enhance self-reflection and are likely to engender empathy for others and an active sense of civic duty. Applied to leadership, understanding how humans find meaning and shared purposes goes to the heart of the relational process that we call leadership.
The journal publishes original papers including but not limited to the following fields:
• Philosophical approaches to Leadership Studies
• History and Leadership
• Biography and Leadership
• Analytic psychology, psychoanalysis and Leadership
• Ethics and Leadership
• Cultural Studies and Leadership
• Arts and Leadership
• Literature and Leadership
• Language (modern and ancient), Linguistics and Semiotics approaches to Leadership
• Communication Studies and Leadership
• Religion and Leadership
• Anthropological approaches to Leadership
• Law and Leadership
• Political theory and Leadership
• Humanity education for leadership development
Leadership and the Humanities is an English language journal. Manuscripts should not exceed 9000 words in length (including notes) and should include a list of keywords (maximum 8). In keeping with our commitment to serving the many disciplines encompassed in the humanities, we are prepared to accept submissions formatted according to the style manuals of either the Modern Language Association (MLA) or the Chicago Manual of Style. Please submit your manuscript as a Word file e-mail attachment, directed to the following address:
LATHeditor@e-elgar.com
To facilitate double-blind review, the title page should be without names or affiliations. Please include a 250-word abstract. The covering e-mail should include the author name, affiliation, and contact information. Text should be saved as .doc files. A modern version of Microsoft Word is recommended as the software because it is so widely used. Present your file as simply as possible, any complex formatting will have to be stripped out.
