Studies in Higher Education

Special Issues may be generated by:
 - international calls for papers (including the SRHE Annual Conference)
 - academic papers produced by projects or conferences
 - invitation to expert authors by the co-editors.

Acceptance of a proposed Special Issue depends on:
 - international relevance of the topic-wide authorship spanning all regions including opportunities for new and young scholars.

Peer review is conducted by members of the SRHE Journal Editorial Board with specific  expertise in the subject. Guest editorship is not a current practice but lead/co-ordinating authors may be invited to write an introductory paper to present the subject. The co-editors approve a Special Issue proposal based on a preliminary list of international authors and a synopsis of their papers, critique the first draft of papers to prepare for later peer review and provide the foreword.
