Culture and Religion is an interdisciplinary journal seeking an engagement between scholars working across a range of disciplinary fields, including anthropology, cultural studies, critical theory and gender studies, and postcolonial studies. Lying at the interface between the study of religion and other academic studies of culture, Culture and Religion is a forum for exploring the perspectives of both anthropology and cultural studies. In particular, the journal will consider why cultural studies have hitherto neglected the significance of religious manifestations in cross-cultural perspectives, and define ways in which the discipline of religious studies needs to engage with other areas of contemporary critical, cultural, and anthropological theory. The principal aim of Culture and Religion is to promote critical investigation into all aspects of the study of religion and culture, particularly from scholars with an innovative and multidisciplinary focus. www.tandf.co.uk/journals/rcar

National Identities Editors: Peter Catterall, Queen Mary, University of London, UK, David Kaplan, Kent State University, USA, Elfie Rembold, Social Science Research Centre Berlin, Germany and Christopher Vernon, University of Western Australia Volume 13, 4 issues per year Print ISSN: 1460-8944, Online ISSN: 1469-9907 National Identities explores the formation and expression of national identity from antiquity to the present day. It examines the role in forging identity of cultural (language, architecture, music, gender, religion, the media, sport, encounters with ‘the other’ etc.) and political (state forms, wars, boundaries) factors, by examining how these have been shaped and changed over time. The historical significance of ‘nation’in political and cultural terms is considered in relationship to other important and in some cases countervailing forms of identity such as religion, region, tribe or class. The focus is on identity, rather than on contingent political forms that may express it. The journal is not prescriptive or proscriptive in its approach. Instead, it acts as a forum within which the growing number of scholars working in this field can explore this important subject. Comparative perspectives are encouraged, and the journal features regular review essays as well as book reviews. www.tandf.co.uk/journals/nationalidentities

Patterns of Prejudice Editors: David Cesarani, Royal Holloway, University of London, UK, Tony Kushner, University of Southampton, UK and Barbara Rosenbaum, University of Southampton, UK Volume 45, 5 issues per year Print ISSN: 0031-322X, Online ISSN: 1461-7331 2009 Impact Factor: 0.575 Ranking: 7/10 (Ethnic Studies) © 2010 Thomson Reuters, Journal Citation Reports® Patterns of Prejudice provides a forum for exploring the historical roots and contemporary varieties of social exclusion and the demonization or stigmatisation of the Other. It probes the language and construction of ‘race’, nation, colour, and ethnicity, as well as the linkages between these categories. It encourages discussion of issues at the top of the public policy agenda, such as asylum, immigration, hate crimes and citizenship. As none of these issues are confined to any one region, Patterns of Prejudice maintains a global optic, at the same time as scrutinizing intensely the history and development of intolerance and chauvinism in the United States and Europe, both East and West. www.tandf.co.uk/journals/rpop

The subjects of papers range from classical concerns, such as the determinants and consequences of population change, to such topics as family demography and evolutionary and genetic influences on demographic behaviour.

India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bhutan and the Maldives all anchor a sense of home for people who have moved outside the region through the centuries. These territories evoke emotional, social, political, economic, cultural and literary affiliations as well which find expression in multiple ways. The diaspora is also marked by struggles over meanings and tensions both amongst the diasporics and with people in the countries where the diasporics now inhabit. In South Asian Diaspora we aim to explore some of the issues that the South Asian diaspora presents for the contemporary world. www.tandf.co.uk/journals/rsad
