                               LOCAL ENVIRONMENT

                       SUBSCRIPTION ANNOUNCEMENT

          AND CALL FOR PAPERS  FOR  VOLUMES 3 (1998)

Local Environment  is a new international journal which was launched in
February 1996. The journal focuses upon the growing area of local
environmental and sustainbility policy, politics and action, defined in the
broadest possible manner. It addresses these issues in terms which
encompass both 'academic' and 'practice' issues and debates. The
composition of the editorial board(s) of the journal reflect our intention
that Local Environment will serve environmental practitioners in central
and local governments, the voluntary and private sectors, as well as
teachers, researchers and students in higher education.

Contents:

We would welcome papers to be published in 1997-8 relating to local
environmental and sustainability policy, practice and politics, with a
focus upon 'the local' in a regional, national and international context.
We wish to invite three kinds of contribution:

* Articles relating to some aspects of the journal's central concerns.
These should be about 6,000 words and be written in a style which reflects
the journal's readership in both academic institutions and practice. All
submitted articles will be read by independent referees before being
accepted for publication.

* Viewpoints and Comment will provide an opportunity to express opinions on
current or future policies, politics or other issues. These will generally
be around 2,000 - 3,000 words and will not be subject to refereeing.

* Reviews of recent books and publications. We are compiling a list of
reviewers and would welcome any prospective reviewers. Reviews will
normally be around 600 words. Books, publications, reviews or the names of
prospective reviewers should be sent to:

Sue Buckingham-Hatfield,
Reviews Editor,
Brunel University College,
Borough Road,
Isleworth TW7 1DU
UK

In all cases, contributions should be submitted as hard copy. Notes for
Contributors for article authors may be obtained from the editors and will
be published in each issue of the Journal. North American authors should
note that there is a different refereeing system.
