The Journal on Ethnopolitics and Minority Issues in Europe (JEMIE) is a peer-reviewed, open access, fully online journal published by the European Centre for Minority Issues. JEMIE provides a space for original research exploring minority-majority relations in in an interdisciplinary manner, drawing on political science, sociology, anthropology, international relations, history, social psychology and cultural studies. JEMIE welcomes contributions on topics such as minority rights, political and socio-economic participation, good governance, diversity management, racial and ethnic inequalities, democratization, and interethnic conflict. The Journal on Ethnopolitics and Minority Issues in Europe was established in 2000 as the flagship academic journal published by the European Centre for Minority Issues. Aims and Scope. The Journal on Ethnopolitics and Minority Issues in Europe is an international academic journal providing a platform for critical and interdisciplinary dialogue on questions of minority rights, political and socio-economic participation, good governance, diversity management, racial and ethnic inequalities, democratization, and interethnic conflict. Our journal is particularly interested in stimulating debates between varied theoretical but also empirical approaches; we also encourage policy debates on topical issues that combine conceptual and practice-oriented analyses. The Journal's geographical focus is Europe, broadly understood; however, contributions on minority issues outside Europe and using a comparative perspective with European case studies and frameworks are also welcome. Within this broad framework, the journal accepts submissions in the following non-exhaustive areas: Theoretical and methodological approaches to studying minority issues; Comparative and in-depth studies of minority groups and regions, in particular using intersectional approaches; Governance, political participation, social movements, and civic activism in ethnically diverse societies; Political and socio-economic inequalities affecting minority and racialised groups; Cultural and linguistic perspectives on minority identity and mobilization; Critical evaluations of policies and developments within European institutions and their interactions with neighbouring regions; Impact of climate change and environmental harm on minority groups; Conflict prevention and resolution, especially in minority populated regions. The Journal considers only previously unpublished
