+++++CALL FOR AUTHORS+++++
EJAS-L is accepting articles. EJAS-L has five sections, one of which is
refereed:
1. Research and applications (refereed)
Peer-reviewed scholarly articles from multiple
sub-disciplines of Pan African Studies on such topics
as analysis, evaluation, applications, (reports
of projects), and other research.
2. Essays and opinions (non-refereed).
3. News, letters, and other discussions (non-refereed)
4. Reviews of print and electronic resources (non-refereed).
5. Pre-prints and Abstracts Distribution (non-refereed).
Articles may be submitted for inclusion in any of the five categories.
Articles submitted for the refereed sections will be blind reviewed by
least two qualified referees.
EJAS-L will be distributed through a listserv fileserver, a ftp site and
a gopher server. Subscribers will be made aware of the available issue
by distribution of a quarterly table of contents to AFAS-L, AFROAM, and
and other e-conferences that request the service.
