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.
