Submissions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

AJCJS is the peer-reviewed official journal of the African Criminology and Justice Association. It is published approximately two times a year (spring and fall). The journal will publish scholarly essays, reviews and research notes on all issues relevant to criminology and justice systems of interest to Africans at home and the African Diaspora globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Central to the aims of the journal (though not exclusive) is the publication of innovative theoretical, methodological and policy interventions that deepen the understanding of how to prevent or repair the crimes against humanity that people of African descent have suffered and how to reverse the crisis of over-representation that people of African descent continue to suffer in correctional institutions around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pedagogical papers on how to develop criminology and criminal justice education in Africa will also be welcomed as part of the intellectual struggle to advance respect for human rights, strengthen democratic governance and bring an end to the bane of racism, ethnic chauvinism, sexism, and class exploitation that people of African descent and others have been burdened with for centuries. For more information on the potential role of criminal justice education in the Third World, see the paper by Chris Eskridge, the Executive Director of the ASC, on his web page and in the Journal of Criminal Justice Education and, see also the book by Biko Agozino; Counter Colonial Criminology, London, Pluto Press, 2003.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Essays on criminal justice agencies and policies that impact on people of African descent will also be published with emphasis on how they relate to a better understanding of how to guarantee social, political and economic justice to people of African descent globally.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
