To strengthen the inter- and transdisciplinary character of research in the arts and culture, the journal publishes research articles (6000 to 10.000 words), exploratory essays (about 6.000 words), and case studies (about 4.000 words) from disciplines such as sociology and psychology (of the arts), (cultural) politics, economics, history, cultural studies, philosophy, political science, theatre studies, musicology, and arts education, or the interdisciplinary integration of these. The journal also accepts reports on conferences, symposia, workshops and similar events relating to cultural management and/or cultural policy.
Research articles must fulfill the highest standards in methodological and theoretical approaches; essays are evidence-based and give the opportunity to explore topics outside of a traditional research approach . Case studies are shorter research based-articles that offer insights into particular questions and methods applied in a specific research context.
Reviews of books and conferences (850 to 1.000 words) related to the topic of the special issue complement each issue. Reports submitted by event organizers not accepted.
Call for papers are published here.
