International Journal of Home Economics (IJHE)

Call for Papers - IJHE

The official journal of the International Federation for Home Economics (IFHE) urgently requests submissions for publication. This refereed e-journal brings together emergent and breaking work on all aspects of Home Economics, and most importantly, how we might improve and renew the everyday work of Home Economists. It features quantitative and qualitative, disciplinary and trans-disciplinary, empirical and theoretical work and includes special editions on key developments. It aims to push the boundaries of theory and research—to seek out new paradigms, models and ways of framing home economics.

The International Journal of Home Economics welcomes contributions from members and non-members, from a variety of disciplinary and theoretical perspectives. Manuscripts should be sent electronically to Dr. Donna PENDERGAST, Editor e-mail at editor@ifhejournal.org . Please send files as a Microsoft Word document (doc) or in Rich Text Format (rtf). Paper length should not exceed 6000 words.
