The Economic and Labour Relations Review (ELRR) is trialling a new section – a strand of exploratory articles and debates.
In this new section, we want to open up space for exploratory contributions that engage with, and contest, accepted or dominant schools of thought or propose new avenues of engagement in or analysis of the worlds of economics or work and employment. We invite contributions that seek to open up new paths or shine light on undeservedly ignored or overlooked avenues of thought, and for contributions that challenge, test, develop or refine these ideas.
Contributions should lie within the broad ELRR remit and adhere to its stated ethical and philosophical standards.
ELRR will publish a maximum of one such article of up to 10,000 words per issue. It will be peer-reviewed and acceptance will be subject to normal Board oversight.
The first contribution is Michael Quinlan’s ‘Five challenges to humanity: Learning from pattern/repeat failures in past disasters?’ in ELRR 31(3).
