Publishing for the Future

We see publishing as being vitally important in promoting and encouraging the kind of work which is collaborative, innovative, and imaginative. In particular, publishing is fundamental to the work of our conference projects and provides the opportunity to provide an exemplar for inter-disciplinary and multi-disciplinary work.

More than anything else, we are committed to the view that publishing - in all its traditional and electronic forms - is the best means of raising awareness of the cutting-edge thinking being undertaken in the projects we run and lies at the very heart of critical dialogue and debate.

Inter-disciplinary.Net has two broadly based publishing centres of activity:

  • The Inter-Disciplinary Press. Used primarily for all of our electronic publishing activities, and focusing primarily on eBooks and other electronic forms of communication.

  • Rodopi. We are delighted to be working in partnership with this adventurous and prestigious Press who are equally committed to promoting inter- and multi-disciplinary research. Rodopi publish the At the Interface/Probing the Boundaries series of books which originate from and support the work of conference projects.


We do not believe that a publication is or should ever be a 'one-off' or 'stand alone' event; such a publication is ultimately self-defeating of any educational process. Rather we see publications as part of a continuing project and process of events where a book acts as a resource to drive the project and the process forward. Our publications are therefore tightly integrated into direction and thrust of a project.

We are always interested in talking with people who have ideas for a publishing project or a manuscript they think could be part of or even be the start of a project. If so, please do not hesitate to contact us. But please remember - we only publish manuscripts which contain work that is broadly inter-disciplinary and multi-disciplinary in nature.
