Journal of European Landscapes Q&A

Meet the Editors

This Q&A is an opportunity to meet the editors of the new ‘Journal of European Landscapes’ to allow prospective authors to find out how to get started with the process of publishing articles in the journal and about academic publishing more generally. The event will be of interest to researchers in the fields of archaeology, anthropology and art history, geography, earth sciences, economics, tourism studies, sociology, and the wider community of anyone interested in these subjects.

The Journal of European Landscapes, a new Open Access journal published by Amsterdam University Press, offers a platform for knowledge exchange on the historical and heritage aspects of rural, urban and industrial landscapes of Europe, particularly for comparative, international and contextualising approaches. During this event, we want to introduce the journal to researchers in the fields of archaeology, anthropology and art history, geography, earth sciences, economics, tourism studies and sociology. With a live stream to interested people worldwide, we hope to engage critical heritage studies scholars and the wider community of anyone interested in these subjects. You can suggest discussion topics through this form.
