21/6/2013 – Research papers sought for the fourth edition of Borderlands: The Journal of Spatial Planning in Ireland

The International Centre for Local and Regional Development (ICLRD) will publish the fourth edition of Borderlands: The Journal of Spatial Planning in Ireland in January 2014. The Centre is currently seeking high quality research papers on issues of spatial planning and regional development to include in this forthcoming issue of the Journal. The subject matter of articles can cover a number of areas, including: spatial planning policy and practice, the economy, balanced regional development, cross-border collaborative initiatives, renewable energy and the green economy, shared services, housing, health, education, marine spatial planning, the environment, governance (reform) and evidence-informed planning.

Those interested in submitting a paper should forward a 300-word abstract to John Driscoll, Director at driscoll@iclrd.org by close of business on Friday, 19th July 2013.

The Centre will pay £200 / €235 for an article of 4,000-5,000 words.

While articles can relate to the island of Ireland or overseas, all must have a spatial planning focus.
