CALL FOR PAPERS 2021

The Cordillera Review is an open-access, internationally refereed electronic journal published by the University of the Philippines Baguio.

In 2021, the TCR will be transitioning into an online, electronic journal to include articles submitted through this Call.

DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS:

    The Cordillera Review is published by the University of the Philippines Baguio through its research arm, the Cordillera Studies Center.

    ABOUT THE JOURNAL

    The Cordillera Review is an open-access internationally refereed electronic journal published by the University of the Philippines Baguio. It is a multidisciplinary journal devoted to the publication of both local and international studies on Philippine culture and society. Given the geographical location and research thrust of the University of the Philippines Baguio, The Cordillera Review puts an emphasis on research about the Cordillera Region and other parts of Northern Luzon, Philippines. However, it encourages submission of national and global comparative studies and papers that contribute to the debate on theoretical and methodological approaches to the study of indigenous and upland societies such as in issues of:

    • ethnicity and identity politics

    • systems of representation

    • political economy of language, literature and culture

    • history and political dynamics

    • cultural policy

    • environmental politics

    • diasporic practices,

    • artistic and intellectual traditions, etc.

    Although it cannot accommodate scientific or empirical papers in the hard sciences, the journal welcomes articles on science and technology that illuminate issues and concerns in Philippine society especially in indigenous communities in the country and elsewhere in the world.

    REVIEW PROCESS

    TCR is a refereed publication that subscribes to the established standards of academic publications. Articles submitted to the journal are subjected to a double-blind peer review process. Initial screening of manuscripts is done by the Board of Editors. Articles that meet the requirements of the journal are then referred, for comments and recommendation, to external reviewers from different academic institutions in the Philippines and abroad. The final decision is made by the Editor-in-Chief in consultation with the other members of the editorial board. Together, they review the entire process, to ensure that all editorial suggestions have been addressed.

    ONLINE TRANSITION

    The reconfiguration of the TCR from print to an online platform began in earnest to facilitate easier access to journal content. However, enabling access to and wider dissemination of knowledge is more importantly concerned with the elevation of the TCR as a publication at par with international counterparts. The quality of scholarship in TCR enriches international academic conversations especially in the field of indigenous studies and has a significant input in particular fields of study while remaining open to multiple areas of scholarship.
