Open Access Journal from 2023

With Issue 1 2023, the journal introduced an exciting new multimedia format that includes not only the rigorous and practical peer-reviewed papers that we have always delighted in publishing, but also original audio and video content, cultural reviews, and interviews making connections with innovative thinkers. The journal’s new look also enables more interaction, with invitations for readers to respond to and discuss papers. We hope this will continue to foster a sense of intellectual community among practitioners. From Issue 1 2023, the journal is being published twice yearly on a Diamond Open Access basis, which means that all our papers and multimedia contributions are freely available to read and share. There are no fees for contributors publishing in the journal.
