Polymer Reviews publishes topical issues, consisting of invited high quality reviews on topics of current interest in all areas of macromolecular science and engineering. Areas of particular interest are biomedical applications, organic electronics and photonics, nanostructures, micro- and nano-fabrication, biological molecules (DNA, proteins, carbohydrates), polymers for renewable energy and the environment, and polymers at the interfaces with other disciplines. Articles may either provide a complete, broad review of a topic, or may concentrate on the author's own work, placing that work in the context of the broader field. Please note that Polymer Reviews only publishes invited articles. Unsolicited articles will not be accepted, and will be returned to the author without review.

For over half a century, Population Studies has reported significant advances in methods of demographic analysis, conceptual and mathematical theories of demographic dynamics and behaviour, and the use of these theories and methods to extend scientific knowledge and to inform policy and practice.The Journal's coverage of this field is comprehensive: applications in developed and developing countries; historical and contemporary studies; quantitative and qualitative studies; analytical essays and reviews. The subjects of papers range from classical concerns, such as the determinants and consequences of population change, to such topics as family demography and evolutionary and genetic influences on demographic behaviour. Often the Journal's papers have had the effect of extending the boundaries of its field.Papers for publication and books for review should be submitted via Population Studies' Manuscript Central site, at http://mc.manuscriptcentral.com/rpstOther editorial correspondence should be addressed to: The EditorsPopulation Investigation CommitteeRoom PS201London School of EconomicsHoughton StreetLondon WC2A 2AETelephone +44 (0)20-7955-7666Fax +44 (0)207 955 6831Email: pic@lse.ac.ukIndividual Subscribers: Online Access Activation.

Porn Studies is the first dedicated, international, peer-reviewed journal to critically explore those cultural products and services designated as pornographic and their cultural, economic, historical, institutional, legal and social contexts. Porn Studies will publish innovative work examining specifically sexual and explicit media forms, their connections to wider media landscapes and their links to the broader spheres of (sex) work across historical periods and national contexts.

Post-Communist Economies publishes key research and policy articles in the analysis of post-communist economies. The basic transformation in the past two decades through stabilisation, liberalisation and privatisation has been completed in virtually all of the former communist countries, but despite the dramatic changes that have taken place, the post-communist economies still form a clearly identifiable group, distinguished by the impact of the years of communist rule. Post-communist economies still present distinctive problems that make them a particular focus of research.These countries' economies need further stabilisation, liberalisation and privatisation and have fundamental problems of low efficiency, productivity and income. All still have some distance to go to match the long-established market economies and more attention needs to be devoted to the microeconomic aspects of the post-communist countries'efforts to catch up with the much richer countries of the European Union.Peer ReviewAll submitted articles are refereed by a board of academic specialists in the journal' field of coverage and, in addition, where appropriate, by an external specialist referee.

Post-Medieval Archaeology is a bi-annual journal devoted to the study of the material evidence of European society wherever it is found in the world. This fascinating period saw the transition from medieval to industrial society, the foundation of the modern European world on new Renaissance and Reformation values, the shift from collective to individual mentalities, increasing social segregation, new notions of privacy, family, gender and space, global expansion, and revolutions in the modes and scales of production. The journal wishes to foster a multidisciplinary approach to the past, exploiting material, textual, iconographic and scientific evidence, and to engage in the latest theoretical debates.Post-Medieval Archaeology is an international journal, covering a range of subjects, which illustrates the increasingly broad scope of post-medieval archaeology today, including pottery, glass, metalwork, fortifications, vernacular architecture, landscape studies and industrial archaeology.

Post-Soviet Affairs features the work of prominent Western scholars on the republics of the former Soviet Union, providing exclusive, up-to-the minute analyses of the state of the economy and society, progress toward economic and political reform, and linkages between political and social changes and economic developments (published since 1985).

Postcolonial Studies is the journal of the Institute of Postcolonial Studies, Melbourne.Postcolonial Studies is the first journal specifically aimed at publishing work which explores the various facets8212;textual, figural, spatial, historical, political and economic8212;of the colonial encounter, and the ways in which this encounter shaped the West and non-West alike.A growing academic literature recognises that the colonial encounter was a seminal event in the history of both the West and the non-Western world, shaping culture and literature, politics and history. From being the provenance of the 8216;area studies' scholar, it has become the site of numerous investigations from many disciplines, as well as a theoretical perspective from which to view a variety of concerns. 8216;Postcolonialism' is the name which such investigations have acquired, and Postcolonial Studies provides a forum for them.Postcolonial Studies does not confine its attentions to any single place, region or discipline. It publishes original and challenging contributions from all over the world, informed by a variety of theoretical perspectives, including postmodernism, marxism, feminism and queer theory. Its aim is to generate a productive dialogue and exchange between theorists and writers in disparate locations.Peer Review Policy:All research articles in this journal have undergone rigorous peer review, based on initial editor screening and anonymized refereeing by two anonymous referees.
