CfA: ENCATC Journal of Cultural Management and Policy

The ENCATC Journal of Cultural Management and Policy is a annual publication with articles on cultural research, launched in October 2011. The objective of the Journal is to stimulate the debate on the topics of cultural management and cultural policy among scholars, educators, policy makers and cultural managers. The Journal is based on a multidisciplinary perspective and aims at connecting theory and practice in the realm of the cultural sector. The ENCATC Journal of Cultural Management and Policy is overseen by an international editorial board of leading academics. The 7th Volume of the journal will be issued in December 2017. Application deadline is 15 March 2017.

Contributions are welcome from any relevant discipline, provided that they make an original academic contribution to the study of cultural management and policy. The received articles will go through a double-blind peer review process. After this, authors will be informed whether the article has been accepted or not. The editors reserve the right to first make a prior selection in case a large number of articles is received.
