Scope/Description:

The Australasian Review of African Studies aims to contribute to a better understanding of Africa in Australasia and the Pacific. It is published twice a year in June and December by The African Studies Association of Australasia and the Pacific. ARAS is a multi-disciplinary journal that seeks to provide critical, authoritative and accessible material on a range of African affairs that is interesting and readable to as broad an audience as possible, both academic and non-academic.All articles are blind peer reviewed by two independent and qualified experts in their entirety prior to publication. Each issue includes both scholarly and generalist articles, a book review section (which normally includes a lengthy review essay), short notes on contemporary African issues and events (up to 2,000 words), as well as reports on research and professional involvement in Africa, and on African university activities. What makes the Review distinctive as a professional journal is this ‘mix’ of authoritative scholarly and generalist material on critical African issues written from very different disciplinary and professional perspectives.The Review is available to all members of the African Studies Association of Australia and the Pacific as part of their membership. Membership is open to anyone interested in African affairs, and the annual subscription fee is modest. The ARAS readership intersects academic, professional, voluntary agency and public audiences and includes specialists, non-specialists and members of the growing African community in Australia. There is also now a small but growing international readership which extends to Africa, North America and the United Kingdom.
