eISSN: 17412706 | ISSN: 14687968 | Current volume: 24 | Current issue: 4 Frequency: Bi-monthly

An ISI rated journal, Ethnicities is fully peer-reviewed with an impressive international reputation and focus. As a genuinely cross-disciplinary journal centred on sociology and politics, Ethnicities provides the very best critical, interdisciplinary dialogue on questions of ethnicity, nationalism and related issues such as identity politics and minority rights.

Ethnicities has three broad aims, each of which adds a new and distinctive dimension to the academic analysis of ethnicity, nationalism, identity politics and minority rights.

A Journal of Sociology and Politics

Ethnicities aims to achieve a critical nexus between the disciplines of sociology and politics with respect to debates on ethnicity, nationalism and identity politics.

A Journal of Culture and Structure

Ethnicities aims to explore the complex interconnections between culture and socioeconomic structure with respect to the mobilisation of ethnicity, other social movements, and the implications of such mobilisation(s) for modern nation-states.

An International Journal

Ethnicities has a truly international reach, and welcomes discussion of any country or region of the world, as well as transnational and diasporic contexts.

"Reviewing the issues published so far, one cannot help but be impressed by the high quality of most submissions and the amount of ground they cover.This journal is essential reading for those teaching and reseraching in the general area of race, ethnicity, migration, nationalism and transnational studies." Gurharpal Singh - THES

"The journal Ethnicities is most welcome, adding to the journals which already exist in the area an interdisciplinary approach that explores the relationship between the empirical and the normative and that examines issues of ethnicity and nationalism in relation to both hegemonic majorities and racialized minorities." Nira Yuval-Davis

"This is a journal whose time has come: interdisciplinary, international, engaged but skeptical, Ethnicities is sure to advance thinking in this fragmented field, every day more vital, and yet not fully liberated from the intellectual blinders inherited from the past." Roger Waldinger

"A most welcome journal in the exciting and growing field of ethnicity and race. Edited by people drawn from different disciplines, it provides a rare academic space for cross-perspectival fertilisation." Bhikhu Parekh

Ethnicities is available on SAGE Journals Online.

There is currently a burgeoning interest in both sociology and politics around questions of ethnicity, nationalism and related issues such as identity politics and minority rights. Ethnicities is a cross-disciplinary journal that will provide a critical dialogue between these debates in sociology and politics, and related disciplines.

Ethnicities has three broad aims, each of which adds a new and distinctive dimension to the academic analysis of ethnicity, nationalism, identity politics and minority rights.

A Journal of Sociology and Politics

Ethnicities aims to achieve a critical nexus between the disciplines of sociology and politics with respect to debates on ethnicity, nationalism and identity politics. These debates have until recently been largely constrained within disciplinary boundaries, resulting in the two disciplines 'talking past each other' with respect to such issues.

Consideration of the interconnections between ethnicity and other forms of identity also lends itself to an even wider interdisciplinarity. As such, the journal aims to encourage work from a wide range of related disciplines, including anthropology, black studies, cultural studies, education, gender studies, geography, history, law, literary and media studies, philosophy and social policy.

A Journal of Culture and Structure

Ethnicities aims to explore the complex interconnections between culture and socioeconomic structure with respect to the mobilisation of ethnicity, other social movements, and the implications of such mobilisation(s) for modern nation-states. In this sense, it aims specifically to bring together the more 'traditional' materialist emphases and concerns of 'race' and ethnicity studies, with the wider theoretical debates (both sociological and political) on the (re)construction of democratic societies. In so doing, it will also explore the interface between modernist and postmodernist debates on such issues.

An International Journal

Ethnicities has a truly international reach, as reflected in the composition and research expertise of the Editorial and International Advisory Boards. The journal welcomes discussion of any country or region of the world, as well as transnational and diasporic contexts. Contributors are encouraged to set their work, wherever possible, within a transnational and/or transregional perspective.
